Editorial Review

"Harry was a white dog with black spots who liked everything, exceptgetting a bath." Taking matters into his own paws, he buries his family'sscrubbing brush in the backyard and runs away from home before they can wranglehim into the tub. Harry gets dirty playing in the street, dirtier at therailroad, and dirtier still playing tag with the other dogs. When sliding downthe coal chute, he actually changes from a white dog with black spots to a blackdog with white spots! Of course, by the time he gets home he is completelyunrecognizable to his family--even when he does all his clever flip-floppingtricks. In a stroke of doggy genius, he unearths the bath brush, begs for abath, and the rest is history. Youngsters will completely relate to the urge torebel, the thrill of getting dirty, and, finally, the reassurance of family.Gene Zion and Margaret Bloy Graham's Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars doggone good
glad this one is still around so i can share a favorite from my childhood w/ my kids.

5-0 out of 5 stars Childhood Classic
This is a childhood classic read children should not miss out on.Harry loves to get dirty and he hates baths!I read this one when I was younger!

5-0 out of 5 stars A CHILDHOOD CLASSIC
Harry the Dirty Dog is the quintessential children's book for young readers.With its eye- appealing illustrations and simple text, it is the perfect transition from guided reading to independent reading.A delightful trip back to the 50's (sans the conservative vibe and racial/ misogynistic stereotypes of the time), Harry the Dirty Dog is the story of a little dog who is so opposed to getting a bath that he takes matters into his own hands...Er, paws?Harry buries his scrubbing brush in the back yard and takes off from home.While he has a day full of fun adventures, Harry not only gets himself dirtier, but also realizes that while he doesn't like taking a bath, there are many things about his family that he misses. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Harry the sea monster
Harry gets into another of his adventures, this time turning into a seaweed monster at the beach. The illustrations are delightful and it's a fun read.

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Story!
I have had this book since 1969 when I was 6 years old. It is a treasured part of my childhood! It tells the story of a lovable dog Harry and his family spending an eventful day at the beach. Children and adults alike will love this cuddly tale.

5-0 out of 5 stars An adorable dog, kids, beach, adventure.'nuff said!
This book instantly became a bedtime favorite with each of my kids (boy and girl).Harry is adorable, and just enough mischief and adventure (and smelly seaweed!) to keep the little one's attention, and to keep youngreaders turning the pages.You'll love it too. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars An Old Favorite
I love this one! Poor Harry doesn't like the roses on his new sweater from Grandma. He keeps trying (and failing) to "lose" it, and becomes depressed. His mood is saved by a bird that swoops in to unravel the sweater for a nest - and Grandma sends Harry a new, better sweater in the end, so everyone winds up happy. Great muted colors and "retro"-style illustrations, too.

5-0 out of 5 stars Engaging reading
My 4 year old daughter loves reading this book by herself; she just can not get enough.It is a lovely companion book to Harry and the Lady Next door.

4-0 out of 5 stars As Much Fun Now As When I was a Kid
I grew up with this book and never knew of the others in the series.Seeing as my daughter loves dogs I had to buy this when I saw it in this new edition.4-0 out of 5 stars harry and the lady next door
I like Harry and the lady Next Door because Harry doesnt like her sining. I also like this book because Harry brings all these animals. home and the ladysings louder than them. These are reasons why you should read these books.

5-0 out of 5 stars Harry the Wonder Dog!
Harry goes to desperate lengths to silence the lady next door - her singing is too high and loud.He howls, bits piano legs, steals music, chases cows and bands, but finally succeeds, to everyones' relief. Eventhe lady next door is happy.Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars a crowd pleaser or on it's own, it's great!
I purchased this book with the intention of reading it to a group of 150 impoverished Ecuadorian children in Quito, Ecuador. The children range in age from 5-11. THEY LOVED IT!! They were particularly responsive to the funny,mischeivous antics of Harry as they oohed and aahed after I had finished reading each page! It was a good lesson about how to be yourself too. The children immediately shouted "otra vez!" after the first reading. I obliged with 2 more readings! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Should have been left in the garbage
We picked this up at the library because my daughter loves the Harry series of books by the same author. After reading it through once, I couldn't believe such a book was still in circulation. It not only teaches children that it's OK to throw all kinds of things away instead of fixing them, but that it's futile to try to fix things - *and* it states sprawling out and creating landfills in protected areas like marshlands is OK because then there can be more "parks and playgrounds." I was beyond repulsed. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Enchanting!
This is an enchanting tale about Nibble the squirrel, his parents and Mr. M.O. Squirrel (the meanest squirrel you ever met!) I had this book as a child and now have it in my own child's library. Even as an adult I enjoy reading it. Highly recommend for any childs book collection!

5-0 out of 5 stars Me and Squirrels
I'm a squirrel...my name is Emilole Skwerl Chant III Esquire. 5-0 out of 5 stars Nut on the Ice...
... is how squirrels play hockey! This book is very entertaining and reawakens the kid in any adult who reads it - including hockey fans! Nut on the ice is a small part of this tale, but the entire story is wonderful. I hope that this little book sees reprints for all time to come - it should be in every kids' (and grownups!) library! Find it - don't worry about it being used if that's all you can find. It's a keeper! ... Read more
