I'm a dog lover and I always find books written about them interesting.

Surely there is another way to teach this concept to kids. We all know this about dogs, but does there have to be a book? Congratulations on BOTD!

Love the creative narrative and concept. It's astounding to know that dogs can smell 10,000-100,000 better than us. I also admired how honest your review was in identifying complex words advanced for children. Excellent job writing the review. Congrats on BOTD!

Most children enjoy reading and learning about dogs. I am glad the sections about poop are not gross. Thank you for your review.

I have never come across children's books about excrement, so the story sounds interesting. This is an uncommon idea. Beagles, in my opinion, enjoy sniffing various types of dung on the go. For kids, this is funny.

I like this review, it is lucid, mixed with a sense of humor. According to this review, both children and grown-ups can be educated by the book, learning the characteristics of dogs and having a good time.

A book on beagles' ability to smell is very creative. Despite the poop theme, it appears to be a fun and educational book. A narrative technique that allows you to see things through beagles' eyes and smell things through their noses is amazing.

A lovely children's book "The Very Hungry Beagles Guide to Poop", which focuses on the smelling ability of dogs. I think that this book is very much educative to children.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

It seems like such a clever idea to make the beagles the “author.” I think this book would be a really great way to learn more about dogs!

That statement explains why dogs do seem to be obsessed with smells! :dog: Thank you for your excellent review and recommendation, and congrats on BOTD.

M. Jackson (and Lucky, Mr. Beckham, Peanut) is very imaginative and has creatively designed this children's book with a simple plot--a smelling competition by the beagles. I like that it is educative as well as entertaining. I would like to read this one. You have done well with the book review without giving away the suspense. Congratulations on the BOTD!
