Great Read Aloud June 20, 2003 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this book! It's a great read aloud composed of letters written from Ike to his owner about his time stuck in obedience school. A very funny story, which is only enhanced by the splendid illustrations provided by Teague, make this book a storytime winner!
One of the funniest books I've ever read June 5, 2003 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The creative mix of fun artwork, saucy dialogue, and dual viewpoint format combine into one of the funniest books I've ever read. The contrast between Ike's actual situation and his put-upon point of view will ring true for anyone who's lovingly endured the foibles of a pet. I've bought this book for kids and adults, because it's just too good a laugh.
the best book ever March 19, 2003 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
The main character Ike is a dog and a liar. His owner Mrs. LaRue sent Ike to obedience school because he chases the neighbor's cats, steals food off the table, and pulled Mrs. LaRue down the street and tore her best camel coat. The obedience school has a sauna and a pool. Life is easy at obedience school, so I would like to stay thare. I like this book because it has letters to read. I recomend this book to you!
Great book! March 9, 2003 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Another teacher (we both teach 2nd grade) shared this book with me for teaching our students about fact and opinion. The book shows two points of view-- the dog's, and what is really happening. It is written all in letters from the dog (who is in obedience school) to his owner (who put him there). Fabulous illustrations and engaging story. My students loved it (and so did I)!
read once, great, read twice....returned! February 10, 2003 1 out of 11 found this review helpful
Sorry one star! I had such great expectations. This illustrator is so talented! The story starts well, then crumbles. First reading was fine... but I wouldn't go for more. I had ordered 3 (one to keep and 2 to give as Xmas treats. I returned them all.I hope the next story will be constructed with more care.
