Summary: The most entertaining canine tale since _Go, Dog. Go!_
Comment: Some people yearn for a dog to keep them company, while others would rather curl up with a good book. _Open Me...I'm A Dog!_ is the perfect solution for those of us who could never decide which is better. The book's hero (as splendidly rendered by Art Spiegelman) is a very convincing dog--one look at his doleful eyes and jaunty tail makes that clear. Yet, this dog is such a born raconteur that his brilliant storytelling could only rank with the finest books (although he insists that he isn't really one). I suppose I should be sorry that such a great dog was turned into a book by an evil wizard...but if he hadn't been, I couldn't keep him in my college dormitory.

Summary: An imaginative read-aloud for children ages 4-8
Comment: Art Spielman, a New Yorker artist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of MAUS won a Publisher's Weekly 1997 CUFFIE (most unusual children's book) for Open Me...I'm a Dog! Open Me...I'm a Dog! is indeed unusual because the book is suppose to be a live dog. Children will delight in the dog's attempt to convince them that they are interacting with a real dog. The dog asks the reader a series of simple questions that if answered yes, prove that the book is really a dog. The book has a pop-up tail that wags, fur that the reader can pet. If the reader is still not convinced the book is actually a dog, a leash has been attached to the spine of the book just in case the reader would like to take the book/dog for a walk.
Open Me...I'm a Dog is a wonderful book to read-aloud to children. The illustrations are bold and vivid. The size of the book also contributes to the illusion that the reader is holding a "small dog" in their hands. The dog's tale of how he came to find himself in the predicament that he is in, would delight and spur today's child's imagination to soar.
If children enjoy Open Me...I"m a Dog! they will find Mysterious Thelonious by Chris Raschka, Raising Dragons by Jerdine Nolen and i see the rhythm by Toyomi Igus equally entertaining.
