If you’re currently looking for a children’s book, which gives insight into choosing the right dog as well as the responsibilities of owning one, consider, Is That A Wolf or A Dog?
Children have enjoyed dog ownership for centuries, but owning a dog is not something to take lightly. Kids must recognize that there is a lot of work that goes into dog ownership – a happy, healthy, and well-trained canine doesn’t happen overnight.
Author, Marcangelo L. Benevenga, does just this in his book about Arya, his Czechoslovakian Vlcak. The book, based on a true story, only from the perspective of a 14-year-old boy, shares how an obsession with wolves provided the catalyst to research, obtain and train this unusual dog breed.
Is That A Wolf or A Dog? is an enjoyable read for any child who wants a dog but doesn’t understand the responsibilities of owning a dog. The story discusses finding the right personality and temperament of the dog as well as the care, feeding, and training associated with having a dog. Andrea Alemanno’s illustrations breathe life into the story.
Acme Canine highly recommends this book and gives it 4-paws up for content and the example that dreams do come true if you put enough effort into them.
