Reviewed by Laurn Wilhelm, University of WyomingWilliam Wegman employs his dogs to help young children learn their alphabet. Coupled with a cooking pot to which fruits and vegetables are added, is the reinforcement of the shapes of the alphabet made by the famous Weimaraners. Children with a special interest in canines will appreciate Mr. Wegman’s concoction and enjoy seeing the human hand throw the food into the mixing bowl. Recommended for the age appropriate audience.
