TCM ESSENTIALS JR - I Got Two Dogs Book Giveaway
Wednesday, July 08, 2009
We received the new book I Got Two Dogs by John Lithgow, my son loves me to read this book to him. The book comes with a CD that he really enjoys dancing around to.Synopsis
Fanny and Blue may not be the smartest dogs, and they may not be the best-behaved dogs, but they are definitely the most-loved dogs.
John Lithgow's bouncy song - in the book and on the accompanying CD - is based on his own family's two dogs. And Robert Neubecker's eye-popping illustrations capture the joy of all things dog.
I really like the illustrations in this book which done by Robert Neubecker. I relly think besides a cute story the photos really help keep my 2 yr olds attention. I will soon be adding more books written by John Lithgow to my little ones book collection. We both really enjoy them.
About the Author : John Lithgow is the New York Times bestselling author of Micawber, Marsupial Sue, The Remarkable Farkle McBride, and Carnival of the Animals. An award-winning actor, he has starred on stage, film, and television. He performs concerts across the country, and has recorded the CDs Farkle and Friends and Singin' in the Bathtub.
