Dog's Colorful Day: A Messy Story About Colors And Counting (Picture Puffins) Read Free Books and Download eBooks
Dog starts off the day with one black spot on his ear. But it seems that wherever he goes, he runs, rolls, and trots right into colors. As he wanders around town, Dog collects spots made of red jam, blue paint, pink ice cream, and more. When he finally arrives back home, Dog has ten different colored spots. And then it's bath time for this colorful canine, who makes learning colors and numbers easy, messy, and fun!

I bought this book for my mother, who is a preschool teacher at one of the local day care centers. She borrowed this book from the library and renewed it the maximum number of times before I offered to buy it for her. She is going to do a whole lesson plan around Dog and his colors.The paperback version of the book is very large and easy for the kids to see at circle time. It has bright colors and clearly delineated pictures. If kids are going to be handling it themselves I'd recommend getting the hardcover version.Such a cute book! I might have to get a copy for my own collection of children's books!
This book is a lot of fun for toddlers. You follow a very messy/accident-prone dog around as he accrues stains and spots of various colors. Helps with colors and counting (10 spots total). We would read this at bed time and my little one would help me count the spots.
My 3 year old daughter loves this book. She loves dogs, colors, and counting so it's perfect for her.She enjoys counting the spots on the dog as the story goes on and telling me what colors the spots are.We have read this book almost every day since it was purchased.
Dog's Colorful Day is a delightful book for ages 3 through 6. It provides very specific learning opportunities in the areas of color and number recognition, as well as beatifully illustrated, fun pictures. At the conclution of the book, the child's visual memory is challanged with a color and number review. I am a preschool teacher and always have fun reading this book to my classes. I can highly recommend it!Ruth Atkins, San Diego
My boys love to read and this is their current favorite. We can't read it enough and I enjoy it with them. Great for beginning to learn, colors and even some simple nouns like dog, bee and ball. I just bought it as a gift for several friends.
I ordered this for my 2 year old niece who LOVES to read and loves dogs. This is a cute story that incorporates learning colors and counting. There is not too much or too little text, so I could read the whole story to her without losing her attention.
I am sorry I did not discover this book when I worked at a library----it is an excellent book for storytime! This is a very simple story about a messy dog but wonderful way to learn colors, counting to ten, and the language is exceptional. The colors don't just appear onto the dog, they splat,squish,stain. My toddler granddaughter loves this book. It will be a hit with your preschoolers too.
My son (now 4 1/2) knew his colors by the time he was two because he just LOVED this book. We used to borrow it from the library but I just bought it for my youngest who is now two and beginning to master his colors as well. It's such a pleasant, well written book great for all ages through kindergarten. There's not too many words per page with fun illustrations, making it great for a toddler. It touches upon counting to ten but the primary focus is colors. You won't be disappointed!
