Customer Reviews

excellent book for older children/teens

Gives much more detailed information on the breed than any other children's book I've seen. Well written. Chapters: The Gray Ghost, The Beginnings of the Breed, The Development of the Breed, The Weimaraner Today, and Owning a Weimaraner. Many beautiful photos.

but it's a kid's book

This book which is aimed at a young audience does a great job of getting the reader interested in learning about dogs. The simple prose helps struggling readers experience success with reading. The earlier reviewer does not seem to understand that this is a children's book, one aimed at helping struggling readers. This is all the books sets out to do, and does the job well. Adult readers looking for more detailed information really should read other books about the breed.
