Kids will be swept across world history as they learn the hilarious, fascinating, and complete story of man's best friend, from the first domesticated dogs, to the massive mastiffs that came over with Christopher Columbus on his voyage to the New World, to the pampered pooches of kings and queens, to hero dogs like Sergeant Stubby. You'll chuckle through the ages as you catch up with the wonders of man's best friend. Dogs have been by our side through it all, and this book tracks our common story from wild wolves in ancient civilisations to modern-day breeds, highlighting famous pooches of the past and present along the way. Throughout the course of human history, this partnership deepened from dogs doing a service into friendship. What is it we love about dogs so much? From ancient times to the present, dogs have guarded us, worked with us, marched off to war with us, and of course, just sat on the couch with us for a cuddle. It's also interesting when Horowitz mentions her own pets and their names.Book Description Hardcover.

I loved the overview of the history of dog names, and the array of names that Horowitz has seen in her work. Throughout the course of human history, this partnership deepened from dogs doing a service into friendship. Dog Days of History: The Incredible Story of Our Best Friends Albee, Sarah on. Starting with a chapter on dog names is perfect, since that is one of the first ways we interact with pets, even before we get them. The various chapters hit on high interest topics that should appeal to young readers. This was quite interesting to me, since I read it during the stay-at-home portion of the pandemic, so my dog Sylvie and I had just spent just about every second of six weeks together, so the first chapter about the human-dog bond? It hit home. This current volume is more concerned with the interactions we have with our dogs. Horowitz is a scientist who studies dogs and who has written several books about dogs and their behavior, including Inside of a Dog.
