My Dog Never Says Please “My Dog Never Says Please” by Suzanne Williams teaches that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Ginny is tired of her parents always making her do things she doesn’t want to do and believes the dog has a better life then she does. For example, “My dog never says please, and no one thinks a thing about it”. The language is clear and descriptive, especially about Ginny’s feelings. “Sometimes I just wish I were a dog” and “What a life he’s got” are two examples of Ginny’s feelings about wanting to be her dog. The illustrations are cartoon-like and have enjoyable color. When Ginny has to clean her room and her mother says it “looks like a tornado went through here”, the illustration shows her room being a mess! Finally, the book pushes the reader to think about tough issues and broaden perspective. Although Ginny thinks it would be better to be the family dog, she soon realizes that may be it isn’t so great after all! When Ginny’s Mom is making dinner she can “hear pork chops sizzling through the open window”. When the thunderstorm comes she says “I wonder if this doghouse leaks”. Eventually Ginny decides to go back in and wash up for dinner because “Pa says I can go back to being myself anytime”. The big idea of this book is to show that grass isn’t always greener on the other side. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
