BOOK NOOK REVIEWS: Lou Berger








***My summer camp kids are having such fun reading all these great picture books...140 since June 1st and counting...I've decided to expand beyond the fabulous authors who have generously donated to my FREE AUTHOR PROMOTION and shine some of the spotlight on other great children's books as well.***

Title:  Dream Dog
Author:  Lou Berger
Illustrator: David Catrow
Publisher:  Schwartz & Wade Books
Ages: 4 to 8


Synopsis:  Harry wanted a real, live dog but Dad's nose was too twitchy to have one around. Instead of being disappointed, one day Harry had a wonderful idea. He put on his X-35 Infra-Rocket Imagination Helmet to create a dog from deep within his own brain and soon the fun begins in one little boy's world.

Why you should read it:  This is another example of whimsical illustrations capturing my attention and a delightful story playing out on the pages of this fun read. Mr. Berger not only writes for children, but is also the former head writer for Sesame Street and a ten-time Emmy Award winner. With credentials like that, this book is sure to be a hit!

Like-O-Meter Rating: 5 out of 5...grab it!
