ALL Golden: Kids 1 to 3

Touch and Feel Puppy
The Touch and Feel Series was published by DK Publishing in March 1999. In this small, sturdy board book, full of irresistible puppy photos, it's the dogs who do the talking: "I love people tickling my fluffy tummy." (And it is indeed delightfully fluffy.) "I like chewing this fuzzy slipper," says another one, between mouthfuls of a very realistic-feeling blue fuzzy slipper. A puppy's world is full of textures, and young children will adore exploring all of them. It is also a simplified introduction for our little ones that puppies like to have their fluffy tummies rubbed, but not their silky ears pulled.  

Animal Shaped Board Book: Puppy
(Animal Shaped Board Books) This DK board book was just published in February 2000. It is another version of the book "Touch and Feel Puppy," as shown above.

Baby Dog Beans Comes Home: A Paul and Beans Adventure (August 2005)
Parents bringing a new baby into the family can now do more than cross their fingers that their older son or daughter will welcome a new sibling into the fold: they can read big brother or sister a story about it. This book by Jennie Hale Book, shows with text and photos of Golden Retrievers, why getting a new brother or sister might be a blessing rather than a curse.

According to the book, (and to many kids around the world), getting used to a new sibling isn't always easy. Where once older brother or sister had all of mom and dad s attention, now it s divided. And whereas once upon a time older brother or sister got all the toys, nowadays the bats, balls, and dolls have to be shared.

The author writes about jealousy and the many issues surrounding becoming accustomed to a new sibling, with some fun and adventure thrown in. When baby dog Beans first comes home, older brother Paul asks, Why are my mommy and daddy holding him instead of me? By using photographs of Golden Retrievers rather than illustrations or photos of other babies, children will learn indirectly from the story.
