1Max The Shelter Dog  Aug 03, 2009
I found this book a TOTAL rip-off for the price. Fortunately, I bought a "used" copy for slightly less but I expected a BOOK, not a 20 page children's story that was juvenile and infantile. A 3rd grader could have written this book. Had it been priced at 19 cents, then it would have been OK. There was a glaring mis-spelling on the first page which I thought was inexcusable for a writer/editor/publisher. Any editing would have caught it.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

5MAX, THE SHELTER DOG IS A GOOD READ FOR CHILDREN  Jan 09, 2009
MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW IS VERY ACTIVE IN A PIT BULL RESCUE GROUP. THIS BOOK IS GREAT WHEN SHE TAKES A DOG TO CHILDREN'S SCHOOLS AND SHELTERS TO TALK ABOUT DOG SAFETY AND TO INTRODUCE KIDS TO THIS MUCH MISUNDERSTOOD DOG BREED. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK; IF CHILDREN HAVE NO EXPERIENCE WITH DOGS WHO HAVE BEEN SURRENDERED TO SHELTERS THIS IS A REAL EYE-OPENER.

2Good story, disappointing book  Dec 07, 2007
This book was purchased as a gift for my young niece, whose parents are ardent pit bull lovers and supporters. The story in the book is an important one, and I appreciate the author donating some of the proceeds from the book to charity. But for $20, I expected a better quality book - hardcover at least. The artwork looks photocopied onto the page. Overall, the production is very amateur for the price. I'm sad to say I'm disappointed with my purchase.

5Wonderful lesson about shelter dogs  Sep 11, 2007
Max, The Shelter Dog I bought 2 copies of this book for my grandchildren and they love it. We have read it together and I was able to answer questions about dogs in the animal shelter system. It gave my grandchildren an appreciation for stray animals and what they go through.
