Overview
A celebration of one of the most enduring love stories throughout the ages: the one between dogs and humans!
Dogs and humans go back a long way – thousands of years, to be precise! As humans evolved, dogs did too, and we got to know, trust and understand each other instinctively. Whether they helped to protect us from danger, or sniffed out new routes to faraway places, dogs have been by our side throughout history.
In the modern world there are all kinds of dogs: some dogs are working dogs, and help us with herding, hunting or rescuing. And some dogs share our houses and our lives! Together forever, dogs and us!
This narrative nonfiction picture book traces the special relationship between humans and our furry companions — a perfect introduction to the wonderful world of dogs! Includes backmatter with further information on common dog breeds featured in the book.
