Big Dog...Little Dog by Eastman, P. D.

Meet best friends Fred (Big Dog) and Ted (Little Dog) in P. D. Eastman's classic Beginner Book. Though one is big and one is little, and one loves green and one loves red, these pup pals--along with their helpful acquaintance, Bird--prove that opposites can be the very best of friends.

Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children ages 3-7.
