Book Review - Love that Dog

Love that Dog by Sharon Creech ( Harper Collins, 2001)



 Madeleine, 13, Cockermouth, UK


Followed with a sequel: Hate that Cat,  Love that Dog is written entirely in verse, illustrating the emotions and activities of Jack, an American boy who has been assigned the task of writing a poem by his teacher.

Bewildered at the prospect, Jack begins to develop not only in his maturity, confidence and knowledge but also in his poetry skills, exploring both visually artistic and creative writing.

As beautifully narrated as it is innocent, Love that Dog and it's equally appealing sequel will render emotion from all ages.
