I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Lots of repetition and context clues to help new readers. Funny and colorful, too.

I was not a fan of this book.  Even though the illustrations are adorable, I didn't like the story at all.  It was very negative.  The poor animals in this book are just doing what comes naturally to them and the kids are constantly saying "Bad dog!" and "No!"  I mean goats will eat paper sacks!  They can't help it.  And to have a line that says, "The bad dog sits on Dad!" is a horrible message to share with kids.  Dog's are man's best friend, of course they want to sit on a lap.

I received an electronic ARC from Lerner through NetGalley.
Two early readers in one book. Both stories provide simple text and context clues for younger readers. Tactile learning is included as readers can trace the D in Bad Dog and the N in No, Nell, No!
Information for adults included with each story as well.
The story line will hold a young reader's interest and offers plenty of humor as well.
