A New York Public Library Best Book for 2018
Sassy and Waldo are good dogs. They spend the day keeping their house safe. Has a squirrel ever gotten inside? No! But every day their boy, Stewart, comes home from this terrible place called school smelling like anxiety and looseleaf paper.

Sassy and Waldo decide to save Stewart. But they don't let dogs into school. So Sassy and Waldo decide to get creative. They put on an old trench coat, and now everyone at Bea Arthur Elementary thinks they are a new student named Salty from Liver, Ohio. Well, everyone except Stewart.

Sassy and Waldo love school! Everything smells like meat and dirty socks. And they discover a whole other way to help out Stewart!

This is a nice story. I must admit my son is 5 months but I want to just keep reading to him and I read a few pages a day. The illustrations are in black/white/grey and they are clear and expressive.

I had read some of the reviewers who felt this did not portray school in a good light, we felt the opposite, my grandson is entering 3rd grade and was captivated by the fun in this amazing story- I am so Thrilled there is going to be a 2nd book and hope there are a lot more. Love the graphics, clever and adorable, absolutely LOL. Enjoy this with your kids, as soon as he finished, he wanted to read it Again. High praise Indeed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Book for Reluctant Readers
Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2019
Verified Purchase
Working as a reading teacher, many of my students are reluctant to find a book and stick with it. Two Dogs in a Trench Coat is a great book for them; it's funny, and the illustrations keep them engaged, and help them work on different reading skills, such as visualizing and inferencing. Looking forward to adding the sequel to my classroom library!

Delightful. Looking for a humorous end-of-year read aloud for my 2nd/3rd grade class, I used Teacher magazine's book reviews to choose this one. How refreshing to find a funny book that is not dependent upon potty humor or unkind remarks about teachers and parents. Squirrel and meat humor are so much more fun, and the dogs' robust enjoyment of school made me smile. The author captures the voices of the two dogs so expressively that you fall in love with them from the very start.

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2019

My family loves these books! They are funny, perfect for upper elementary who want a light-hearted romp, and work as read-alouds for younger kids as well, especially with the illustrations every few pages.

We are big fans of Sassy and Waldo, and their human family, too!

This is such a cute book. It helped get my reluctant son to read. We would talk about our dogs doing the things that Sassy and Waldo do. I love that there is a series of books to keep him going.
