what parents are saying
This book is really a counting book with dog barking noises. My little one enjoys it but it's not a story and not much substance. (Dec 16, 2019)

My two-year-old is very much into this book right now and the dogs different barks. My four-year-old is enjoying the counting part. The illustrations are adorable and there is a surprise at the end. Oct 05, 2020

This is maybe the only Boynton book we've found that I dislike. It doesn't really have words - just barking. I find it kind of annoying, and prefer books that help with my kids' speech development. Jul 25, 2019

My son loves this, and I love my son -- so I'll read it. Reluctantly. It's adorable, like all the Boyntons, but somewhat exhausting to read! Oct 05, 2016

We usually love Sandra Boynton but this book is one that I can only read one or two times. The repetitive barks art appealing. The repetition is good for kiddos to read along. Aug 29, 2016

It's OK. A lot of barking, so if you like barking like a dog this is the book for you. Good for counting but not my fave. I took it to the grandparents house so they can bark. Jul 22, 2016

This book used to annoy me to read, but my son loved it. And now that he always does the first Woof, it's just adorable! He loves howling for the 9 dogs, and doing the meow at the end. Aug 21, 2014

This isn't the greatest read aloud book. But it is nice for when the little ones want to just sit and look at the pictures, especially if you have a fan of doggies. Jan 13, 2017

I love Sandra Boynton, but not this one. I don't like having to make all the strange dog noises over and over again with no story line. Oct 05, 2016

My son isn't a huge fan of this book which I'm thankful for because I despise it. Who wants to bark their way through an entire book?? There are other much better Boynton books out there. Jun 17, 2016
