Officer Buckle & Gloria

[Editor's Note: This is a combined review of ART DOG, HARRY THE DIRTY DOG, and ANGUS AND THE DUCKS] A dog is man's best friend. If that is true, then imagine the level of friendship children share with canines. This four read-alongs is sure to please every kid who loves dogs. Gloria is the police dog who accompanies Officer Buckle on his safety lectures to schools. Her behind-the-scenes antics liven up his boring presentations and bring them both celebrity. The recording of Caldecott winner OFFICER BUCKLE AND GLORIA is a delight with sprightly music reminiscent of fifties' comedy films, snores, gasps, ringing phones, and audience laughter. T.B.
