Jake the Growling Dog Shares His Trail by Samantha Shannon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My kiddos and I love the Jake the growling dog stories! There are so many opportunities to learn while reading and having fun. In this book Jake and Neet discover some new tracks and don’t know what to make of them. They worry and let their imaginations run wild which even as an adult I can be known to do. In fear they run home and hide. The next day though they gather some friends and go investigate. Brave pups that they are they find the culprit and a wonderful new friend who due to his disability was the cause of the strange tracks. I love that this book shows children how to be supportive of each other no matter what and help Jake conquer his fear. I also love how it shows children it’s okay to be different and that doesn’t make anyone any less of a person or animal. The activities included at the end of the book make this a great teaching tool and makes it a fun way for children to practice what this book teaches or to work through their own uncertainties or fears.
