I love how the colorfully drawn illustrations kept my granddaughter Natalee focused on the book most of the time and throughout the story. This is an adorable book featuring text colors in different sizes that are bright and eye-catching. When great-grandma was finished reading to her, Natalee tried to 'eat' the book! I guess she really enjoyed her story. It was so much fun watching her as her great-grandma read and sang outloud from the book 'Snuggle puppy of mine! Everything about you is especially fine.' Natalee was very interactive while great-grandma read and tried to touch and grab at the cute & colorfully drawn characters. My granddaughter is only nine-months old but this cute and colorful book and illustrations kept her attention most of the time while great-grandma read to her. My friend Sarah's father used to read this book to her when she was about one year old, and he said her favorite part was when he'd sing the chorus off key and swing her up high, but his favorite part was bringing her in close and giving her frequent hugs throughout the book. You may be inspired to hug, rock, kiss, and squeeze your own little one as you tell them how 'especially fine' they are too! Warning - this book will cause smiling!

As the mother dog sings to her puppy how much she loves him and the repeating chorus of,' Snuggle puppy of mine! Everything about you is especially fine' your child will see the mother dog hugging, swinging, kissing, and dancing with her little one. The board pages are not overdone with detail or background pictures, but contain primary colors and objects that your baby will recognize, such as a puppy, a table, a ball, and best of all.cookies! The words encourage following along, as they are multicolored, varying fonts, and are all capitalized when the chorus takes over.Īlthough the title may suggest an easy going bedtime story, expect to find yourself singing and dancing while reading Snuggle Puppy. Sandra Boynton's Snuggle Puppy will have you and your little one singing, snuggling, and hugging before you know it! The mommy and puppy characters are adorable in their simplicity and fun loving antics throughout the pages.
