What is that dog saying?
A wagging tail doesn’t always mean a dog wants to play. A yawn doesn’t always mean a dog is tired. Dogs are talking to us all the time—we just need to know how to listen!
In Talk to the Dog, kids discover how to read a dog's body language, recognize emotions like happiness, fear, excitement, and stress, and respond safely in everyday situations. With engaging nonfiction, approachable wording, and practical real-life examples, this empowering picture book gives children the confidence to interact with dogs in a way that builds respect.
Whether your family has a beloved pet, your child is meeting dogs for the first time, or you simply want your kids to be safe around canines, Talk to the Dog is for you!
