This is my son's current favorite at 16 months old. Simple, repetitive story, with great illustrations. He likes the animal sounds and his favorite part is "Oh no!" shouted the farmer, "a fox!" read with overly exaggerated shock. I highly recommend this book...I read it at least twice a night!

By 2 1/2 yr old son loves farms and tractors, and this farm dog book was no exception! Very humorous, cute illustrations, and a text your child can chime in with! "No, No Titus! Dogs don't lay eggs" and "No, No Titus! Dogs don't give milk!" Titus finally learns his place on the farm, as a wonderful watch dog. YAY!

This is a very satisfying bedtime read for my 4 year-old son. Titus, happily finds his place in the world - as all children wish to do, and is thus able to go happily to bed. When we get to the end of the story, and Titus is praised by everyone for the good job he's done, a smile of pure happiness lights up my son's face. Ah, if life were only so abundantly clear. Bravo Titus!
