Product Description
Tiny is a very large dog. He needs a bath, but the sink is too small. Even the bathtub is too small. The pool is just the right size for Tiny. But it's not easy for a little boy to wash a dog who is bigger than he is! Not since Clifford has a big dog been so appealing. Young readers will love Tiny's antics in this sweet, funny story.

 Rub-A-Dub Fun November 26, 2001
Suzanne M. (San Jose, California)
A giant dog named Tiny washes away an afternoon of fun and mud in Tiny's Bath. This level 1 Easy-to-Read book is filled with brightly colored illustrations that capture the playful relationship between a boy and his dog while clearly emphasizing Tiny's enormous size. Although the sentences are occasionally awkward, they rarely contain more than five words and use sight words that are familiar to transitional readers. In addition, some sentences use a repetitive structure to make reading easier and to build confidence. Children will relate to the humorous plot and will eagerly look forward to finding out how the little boy gets his giant dog clean. This crisp, modern book lacks some of the old-fashioned charm of earlier Easy-to-Read books, but the action-filled tale of a loveable dog will be a delight to children who are eager to practice reading independently.
 This is sure to become a beginning reader classic. August 5, 1999

The illustrations are a delight and there is just enough text to keep "beginning beginners" going.Tiny and his owner have great adult as well as kid appeal. I haven't been this pleased about a book at this level in years, and I've seen a great many. (A kindergarten teacher in WA state.)
