Written in first-dog, Tasse explains to children all the things that make up her day: barking at passersby, going for walks, getting treats, and napping in the sun. Throughout the book, her owner, Carmen, says "Oh, Tasse, you are a Monster Dog but I love you!" as she gently and kindly sets limits, cares for, and enjoys her pet. Tasse expresses opinions and thoughts in the book, but is not overly anthropomorphized--she always clearly remains a dog, with dog goals.The full-page color illustrations on every spread add to the gentle tone and narrative, capturing Tasse the small dog in her everyday activities in a way that helps children feel that while Tasse is the center of the story and the pictures, there is always Carmen nearby as a companion and caregiver.An excellent choice for 'read-alouds' with preschoolers and a delightful choice for families who love dogs and want to encourage empathy. As Tasse herself says, "Life is not always easy for grown-ups."'~ PFJ - online review from the first printing (2018)'I am a little biased but I do think this book is very cute!'~ Jacob Hunerdosse - online review from the first printing (2108)
