I thought that for a Disney book, there could have been a little better rhyming to this. However, my son, who is 6 yrs old, enjoyed the way that the dog, Dug, in this book was constantly distracted from what he oringinally set out in search for. He began by claiming to be a very good tracker because his nose could smell and follow any sent that he was currently tracking, which in the beginning of the book he was on the trail of a bird. However, this dog was not very bright, because he was always running into a new smell that he wanted to follow and the fact that every scent, noise, and animal distracted him from what he was searching for originally.

All in all, this was a good childrens book and a quick, easy read, and more appropriate for kids that are in the first part of grade school. My daughter was un-intrested in this book, her attention was unable to stay focused, but my son liked it.
