Big Dog and Little Dog Getting in Trouble

When Big Dog and Little Dog play tug-o-war with the couch cushions, the furniture ends up ruined and their person is not pleased. Best friends have to be great at sharing—in this case, sharing the blame! With simple text, graphic illustrations, and tongue-in-cheek humor, Dav Pilkey taps into the joys of friendship through his tales of two lovable dog pals. Includes activities.

Big Dog and Little Dog Getting in Trouble is a My First I Can Read book with basic language, word repetition, and whimsical illustrations ideal for sharing with your emergent reader. The first step to helping children become great readers is reading aloud to them. Books at this level have short, compelling stories and are written with simple vocabulary. Repeated phrases allow young readers to read some words along with their caregivers.
