Dog Tales: True Stories of Heroic Hounds by Penelope Rich

4.0

Dog Tales is a really great middle grade nonfiction that tells brief stories about exceptional dogs. I liked that there were different sections of accomplishments; a section for war hero dogs, a section for loyal dogs, a section for dogs with special talents, etc. I also liked that there was a mixture of famous stories (like Hachiko and Balto) with many I'd never heard of, so even as an adult reader I learned about special dogs that I hadn't heard the stories of before. I think families who love dogs will love to read this book together. The stories are quick and to the point so they're easy for a child to follow along.
