Bookroo's summary

A lively dog explores a vibrant garden, claiming it as his own. But as he meets a chipmunk, bird, and bug, he learns the garden belongs to everyone. Join this playful journey celebrating nature and community, where every page invites you to spot the dog amidst the lush scenery. Will the dog embrace the shared beauty of his surroundings?

From the publisher

“I have a garden,” a frisky dog announces. In simple sentences, the dog guides new readers through a bright and lush garden, which is home to a chipmunk, a bird, a bug, and all sorts of other creatures. “This garden is for me,” the dog continues. “No. This garden is for all of us. We have a garden,” answer his animal neighbors. Illustrated in vibrant collage, this deceptively simple I like to Read(R) book is a celebration of nature and community, plus readers can play spot the dog on nearly every spread. Guided Reading Level B.
