What is that dog saying?
A wagging tail doesn’t always mean a dog wants to play. A yawn doesn’t always mean a dog is tired. Dogs are talking to us all the time—we just need to know how to listen!
In Talk to the Dog, kids discover how to read a dog's body language, recognize emotions like happiness, fear, excitement, and stress, and respond safely in everyday situations. With engaging nonfiction, approachable wording, and practical real-life examples, this empowering picture book gives children the confidence to interact with dogs in a way that builds respect.
Whether your family has a beloved pet, your child is meeting dogs for the first time, or you simply want your kids to be safe around canines, Talk to the Dog is for you!
Perfect for:
- Kids ages 4–8 who love dogs and animals
- Teaching dog safety and bite prevention
- Families with children who regularly encounter dogs
- Classrooms, libraries, veterinary offices, shelters, and pet adoption programs
