The German Shepherd of today continues to be a superlative companion dog and is the working dog of choice by many agencies. The breed is suitable for herding, police work, guiding the visually impaired, search and rescue, drug and bomb detection and tracking to name a few. They are highly active both indoors and out, and are vigorous and energetic. This title will help students determine a central idea of a text and how it is conveyed through particular details, providing a summary of the text distinct from personal opinions or judgments.

      Grades 2-4 Looking for pet books? This is your lucky century, because there's a metric ton. The Dog Applause series may not distinguish itself much from the pack (so to speak), but it's nonetheless a straightforward and charming effort that will leash pet lovers to their seats for a while. The text, usually one paragraph per page, is spread over four or five photo-heavy chapters and dutifully lays out stats, characteristics, and history alongside a scattering of boxed fun facts. German shepherds are happiest with a job to do, hence their work with police and as guards. But these loyal, wolfish brethren of Rin Tin Tin can be aggressive when imported from Germany. None of the titles bind themselves too strictly to the overriding structure, allowing each breed to guide the flow of the text. Put your paws together, folks.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2013, American Library Association.)
