review 1: This was merely okay, mostly because of the squirrel. The squirrel is the zenith of the book, and everything was the doldrums after that. You know that part in the last Harry Potter where Harry and Hermione spend an inordinate amount of time doing nothing, wandering around aimlessly, arguing and moping? That's what this book felt like, only in miniature. Thank god Frazee told us the species of Boot and Shoe; they look suspiciously like cats. I usually like Marla Frazee books, but this one just didn't float my boat. Except for the page with the squirrel. That squirrel, like all squirrels, is perfectly lovely sass on the page.
review 2: The story Boot and Shoe was a story about two dogs who came from the same litter and did mostly everything together. The ... moreone thing that differentiated their actions was where they decided to sit during the day. Boot would sit in the front, and Shoe would sit in the back. One day a squirrel came and messed with the two dogs and they both chased the squirrel until it left. They both ended up on the opposite sides of the house and wondered where the other was. So they waited and waited until the other came back. Well since they both did this neither of them ever saw where the other was. So they stayed posted for the rest of the day and all throughout the night waiting for one another. Then in the morning each of them ran into each other while going to the bathroom. I thought that this story displayed a sense of loyalty to one another through them waiting on each other. Loyalty is a quality of a human and a dog I believe. I am a huge dog lover, so I think that this demonstrated the perfect characteristic of a dog. I definitely would recommend this book to anyone trying to teach the concept to loyalty to a child. less
