In the bright and early chaos of a backyard morning, where the world is one big playground of possibility, a determined boy sets out to teach his floppy-eared dog a hundred words—starting with “sit” and “stay,” racing through “fetch” and “roll over,” tumbling into “shake hands” and “play dead,” the pages bursting with Michael Frith’s wild, colorful illustrations that turn every command into a circus of motion and mischief, the dog’s eyes growing wider with each new trick while the boy’s grin stretches like the day itself. The rhymes bounce and tumble like the dog chasing his tail, making the impossible feel like the most natural thing in the world, a Beginner Book that proves learning can be as fun as a belly rub. Imagine reading it aloud on a sunny porch, the words rolling off the tongue as a child’s laughter joins the dog’s imaginary bark, the book becoming a launchpad for every silly command and proud “good dog” that follows. From the beloved Bright and Early series, this 1973 edition remains crisp and vibrant, a piece that turns any bookshelf into a playground of joyful discovery. Discovered by Treasures of Bako - Have we got a gem for you.
