Book Reviews of Love That Dog

Book Review: "Love That Dog" Has a Lot of Love to Give
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this book a year and a half ago from a gift certificate I had gotten for my twelfth birthday. The only reason I bought it was because how much I loved all of the other books Ms. Creech has written. I wasn't too excited about a short book of poetry.

"Love That Dog" is a quick read (you can read it in one sitting.) It is a simple book narrated by a boy named Jack who's learning about poetry. Though reluctant at first to learn, he slowly begins to realize how much he enjoys writing in prose poem.

I was truly touched by this book. It made laugh, it made me cry, it made me think a little differently. Everyone in my family has now read it (or had it read to them), and they all have had the same reaction. It may say for ages 8-12, but it's the type of book everyone will enjoy.

Jack has a little bit of everyone in him, making his feelings easy to understand and laugh with and symphasize with. I was espeacially surprised--the street and house he described were exactly like my old one, I also have an old yellow dog similar to his, and I have a little brother named Jack.

Buy this book. You'll be so glad you did.
