The Little Dog in the Middle of the Road by Sharon P. Stanley

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you have beginning readers in your house, this is the ideal book for them. It features a dog, cute illustrations, and repeated phrases that are perfect for teaching reading. Honestly, I found myself caught up in the story, so it must be pretty doggone excellent!

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
