Dog knows he's the best. He can run faster than Mole. He can dig better holes than Goose. He's bigger than Ladybug. And he can swim better than Donkey. But...Mole can dig holes better than Dog. Goose can swim faster than Dog. Donkey's bigger than Dog. And Ladybug can fly higher than Dog. Nevertheless, Dog is the best at being their best friend and he has fluffy ears. Ergo, he's obviously the best.What I thought: Ego much, Dog? I liked the book. It shows that everyone is special in their own way. The bold, bright illustrations and the simple story are perfect for the smallest children.Story Time Theme: Friendship I'd just like to start out by saying that I am the Best! I must be faster then someone (maybe that rock) and I must be taller then someone else (maybe that two year old)--I must be the best! I love Cousin's enthusiastic dog, who is sure that he is the best at everything because he is better then one of his friends. Unfortunately his bragging makes his friends sad so they show him that they are better then he at those things, which makes him sad. Fortunately dog has the most important thing, and it isn't big fluffy ears (which are clearly the most important) he has self confidence. It may be misplaced, but he is excited about life and his friends.I do love Lucy Cousins for preschool. I need more of her books.

Cute book with a little twist at the end.
