Book Review: Oi Dog! By Kes & Claire Gray

Oi Dog!

Oi Dog! is the laugh-out-loud sequel to Oi Frog! It does stand nicely on its own merit though. The intro, which can be read in all manner of silly voices, is an immediate draw card.

"Oi Dog! Get off the frog!" said the frog. 

Frog has has enough of the rules set in Oi Frog! - that dogs sit on frogs - and decides to change the rules. He decides to change all the things that each animal sits on so that he can get a better deal, and the ending doesn't disappoint. I must note though that the final joke went a bit over my 2.5 year old's head but us parents found it hilarious. There is enough rhyming and silliness that can be enjoyed and repeated by younger readers. Just wait until you find out what elephants will sit on!

Jim Field illustrates Oi Dog! and the pictures are bold, bright and the expressions on each animal are on point.

This book is a great rhyming book that introduces a lot more abstract items to your children's vocabulary and has a great laugh factor. Definitely one to add to the collection. 

Available now in hardback and paperback.

Thanks to Hachette for providing me with a review copy of this book.
