I Love Korky

Author: Teddy SlaterIllustrator: Cristiano Sorrentino

Told in rather predictable rhyme, this is a book for the youngest dog lover to enjoy, both with an adult or alone. The typeset is very large and well presented on each page, with pictures that appeal, in a clear colour palette and distinctive style. Anyone who has had a puppy to train, along with a toddler too, will empathise with this tale, of a dog that is ‘hug-able, tug-able and ever so snug-able’. The toddler is the storyteller, and his delight in the puppy is huge. This mutual love is admirably portrayed in the pictures, and will please any small child who has a pet… or who wants one!
