Our family is always looking for books that are witty and engaging enough for our older daughter and enjoyably accessible for our younger son. It is an apt fit for elementary and tweener-age kids. The story is compelling and whimsical. The book is well written. It is a happy book (much needed in these times) without being sappy. This is a definite positive addition for getting our kids off of their screens and onto new pages. "Dogs Who Play Baseball" sums up this read that delights. They do and it does.

If you love both dogs and baseball, you will get a kick out of this book. It goes from silly can’t-believe-it good-humored fun to serious on-the-edge-of-your-seat baseball action… with dogs of course. As this book goes on it does get more ridiculous (it's funny how the adults can't believe how ridiculous everything is). Throughout the hilarity, a love of everything baseball comes through clearly.

Even if you don't love or completely understand the mechanics of baseball, you will enjoy this warm-hearted book full of great life lessons……

The Dogs Who Play Baseball is a whimsical story of how a group of Bronx children teach their dogs to play baseball. It's especially recommended reading for middle graders who love both the sport and dogs and provides a fun exploration that outlines an inviting cast of characters.

While, on the surface, The Dogs Who Play Baseball is a tale about animals and people, it's also a story about facing adversity, creative problem-solving, and cooperative ventures and thinking.

These focuses make for a winning story that will delight young readers and adults seeking more than a tale about winning and losing, but a social inspection that works on different levels.
