Product Description
Tiny is a very big dog who loves to dig. When he gets dirty, the only bathtub big enough is the kiddy pool. Soon he's back in the dirt--and this time he takes his owner with him! Tiny's Bath, written at the very first level of easy readers, is ideal for early readers. The brief sentences, repetitive phrases, and important visual clues within the illustrations help readers along while keeping them entertained. Predictability, simple vocabulary, and colorful, expressive illustrations combine to build children's reading confidence.

 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.)
