Here’s a tale of a boy and his robotic best (canine) friend. When Scoot the Cat comes on the scene, Motor Dog does what any normal dog would do: gives chase! Our boy Flip does everything he can to call him off, but no commands-verbal or electronic-can stop his new dog. When Flip runs after his malfunctioning pet, things go haywire! Will Motor Dog come through when Flip’s in danger? Merging Kurt Cyrus’ dynamic poetry with David Gordon’s stellar art makes for a wham-bam combination of fast-paced peril and classic storytelling that begs to be read again and again.

My Thoughts:

This is a super cute kids book.

Motor Dog reminds me of the robotic dog in Jimmy Neutron, but cuter! He isn’t so robotic looking.

The entire book rhymes which I love and it really comes down to a friendship and loving bond between dog and boy.

My 6 year old carried this book with him for days when we first got it – he is a big fan!

I highly recommend this book for younger kids. The book recommends ages 3-5 years or Preschool through Kindergarten. I definitely think it is for the learning readers and could possibly go up to 6 or 7 years old and 1st or 2nd grade!
