All of the plotlessness and pointlessness of [b:One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish|7770|One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish|Dr. Seuss|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1165640023s/7770.jpg|98895] but none of the wild creativity or language play.

I mean, I know an easy reader needs to have simple language, but there are tons of books that manage that without being this insipid.

And why oh why does the female dog have to win the approval of the male dog by changing her hat, until they ride off into the sunset at the end when he finally likes her hat?

I could go on. I wouldn't even bother to comment on this, except it's a "classic" and that scares me.

This is one of my absolute favorite books as a child... I remember my Maw Maw reading this to me as a little girl. Every time I open it I get a little sad.

Colors, spatial words, other good concepts with fun illustrations.

I'm pretty sure this was the first book I ever read (with lot's of help from my mother), when I was four years old. Lovely book. Every child should read it.

Read this book to my grandbaby tonight. This is not a strong book. Naming colors and identifying dogs, but other than that, no morals or really good lesson here. Not my favorite.

The best children's book in the whole world - and I mean that. It's perfect. I love it and now so do my children.
lighthearted fast-paced

This was the first book I ever read by myself, so I figured it deserved a special place of honor on Goodreads. =)
