Second, I liked the plot of the story as it followed an organized and easily, readable flow. These illustrations were colorful and appealing especially for younger readers to follow along with the storyline. It showed Harry transition from a white dog to a dirty, black and brown discolored dog. He played tag with other dogs and became dirtier still.” The illustrations used along with the written text included vivid images of the dog, Harry, playing on the railroad tracks and with other dogs. For example, “Harry played at the railroad and got even dirtier. The illustrations were extremely descriptive including a lot of detail pertaining to the plot of the story. The illustrations enhanced the plot while adding a visual aid to the written components of the story. First, I liked the illustrations of the story.
I liked the book Harry The Dirty Dog for two reasons. However, once they gave him a bath and noticed that he was actually a white dog with black spots, it really was him. Harry was the same dog, just dirty, but since he looked different his family didn't believe that it was him. The big idea in the book is that things may appear different on the outside. For example, Harry went on many adventures throughout his time when he ran away from home and I feel like having the illustrations of showing how Harry got dirtier and how he completely changed from a white dog with black spots to a black dog with white spots made the story better. I also liked this book because I feel as though the illustrations really enhance the story. Also, many young readers like things about animals so the fact that it is about a dog, the young readers would probably find it funny. I'm sure many kids probably hate getting baths or can relate to not liking something that they have to do so they hide things or run away from their parents when they don't want to do something and so they can relate to this in some way. The writing was very engaging, I feel like especially for younger readers.
