Harry the Dirty Dog: A Beloved Classic About a Stubborn Dog Who Absolutely Refuses Bath Time and Makes a Mess (Harry the Dog)

This was one of my kiddo's favorite books as a toddler and early reader. It is clever and funny with great illustrations. This purchase was a gift for a new baby in the family.

This is my favorite childhood book. I'm glad that it's still in print so I can get it for others. I still have my original copy that is over 50 years old. Great story, good price

Great kid's book

Great book

This is such a classic book. Book came as pictured. Thanks!

This is a book that will grow along with my son. Some of the story line is difficult to understand, but my son gets the basic concept. Right now, he loves to point out all of the different elements on each page: a train! a car! a boy! As he ages, the book will begin to take on more meaning. The book is about a dog who does not want to take a bath, so instead he runs out the door and finds mischief while playing around in town. He starts to get hungry and lonely and finds his way back home, but the family doesn't recognize him because he's so dirty. He used to be a white dog with black spots, but now he's a black dog with white spots. This is a classic children's book and one that I'm so glad we have in our home library. It's really a must. The size is just right and the book is quite sturdy for the adventurous toddler grip. We even found the companion DVD and I'm amazed at how the animation only enhances the story, not over powers it. It's animation style is a direct link to the book. We love it! Harry the Dirty Dog... and More Playful Puppy Stories (Scholastic Storybook Treasures)

I bought this board book for my son and we love it! The board book is high quality, and the illustrations are wonderful and have a very 50's feel which is when it was written and illustrated. I love bringing this oldie back to life for my little one. The story is a lot of fun because it is all about Harry doesn't like taking baths. He runs away, going all over town and gets so dirty that his family can't recognize him. When he decides to finally go back home, the family is looking for Harry and he can't make them recognize him. He finally grabs a bath brush and gets a bath and the family discovers who he is! This is a fun one that we read as a bedtime story. It is also fun to read before bath time because you can draw connections about cleaning little ones to the story.

This is an excellent bedtime story that is simple, straightforward, adventuresome, touching, and identifiable for families. This is an excellent story to use to teach your children to read for themselves, because after a few readings they can pick out the words for themselves, then you can "not tell the story right..." and have them show you where you are and correct you, and then read the story for themselves. This timeless classic has wonderful illustrations that compliment the text with a perfection that is often absent from modern choices. In short, this book i *valuable* because it is classic, timeless, excellent, entertaining, and pleases both parents and children alike. This is a delightful work that should be in every home.

大好きな絵本の中の１つ。 私は英語版の方が好きです。 読み聞かせにも胎教にも、英語の勉強の１つとしても活躍してくれる絵本だと思います。

Un clásico entrañable que encanta a los peques. Las ilustraciones y la historia son adorables. Ideal para leer en familia.

I purchased this book for my granddaughter as I had read the story regularly to my daughter 40 years ago and she loved it. I had somehow lost the original book so was thrilled to find it still available. This copy is much smaller than the original but content still the same. My granddaughter obviously hasn’t a clue what a coal chute is so had to explain! Story is reflective of the time it was written.

Muy bonito y sencillo para los niños
