What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is secular and entirely focused on art and humor.
Ideal Reader
A 3-year-old who is beginning to recognize shapes and objects in the clouds or everyday life, or a 5-year-old who enjoys wordplay and has an interest in making things.
Parent Prep
This book is best read slowly. Parents should be prepared to stop and talk about what the 'dog' is actually made of, as the visual discovery is the primary draw. It can be read cold with no context needed. A parent might reach for this after a difficult mealtime where a child refused to touch their vegetables, or when a child shows signs of boredom with their standard picture book collection.
