NEW Kids Picture Books: Day 5

Queen Dog by Bridget Heos January 2017. 40 pages.

From Amazon: "Queen Dog has ruled her castle with grace and majesty since she was a pup. Her people adore her. They provide her with delicious meals and shower her with attention. Lately, though, they have been a bit distracted and service has started to slip. Queen Dog tries her best to make do--but then a stranger moves into the castle! Who is this tiny newcomer commanding all the attention? A servant, or a pretender to the throne?"

My thoughts: This is a super cute story with only a few words on each page, told as a dog might see it. Many young couples get some sort of pet, then eventually a baby comes along and takes away the highest place of honor in the family (my husband and I got a cat while I was pregnant with Abby). It takes some getting used to. I could see this book being really enjoyable to share with a child who is going to become an older sibling, helping them see that life will be different but still good.

Recommended Age: 4-8 years
