Why read it?
1 author picked Good Boy, Fergus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Like my previous choices David Shannon’s picture book Good Boy Fergus is built around his excellent timing for humor.
But Shannon’s greatest gift is his ability to convey not only humor, but heart, in his illustrations. Children will love Fergus, a tough and tumble Scottish terrier whose big sweet eyes excuse him from any misbehavior.
Fergus is funny, lovable and like Shannon’s most popular series No David he makes mistakes that children can easily relate to and forgive.
I choose “Fergus” over “David” because I feel some of David’s escapades may be a bit too over the top for young…
From Steve's list on funny picture reads kids will sit still for.
