Book Overview

The Mexican prairie dog is not a dog at all! It's part of the rodent family and is an endangered species.

A fun and engaging nonfiction picture book for kids ages 3-7 that includes Spanish vocabulary, a shapes concept, and the life cycle of the Mexican prairie dog.

A Mexican prairie dog may look like a dog, but it is certainly not a dog. This adorable mammal is actually part of the rodent family.

Not a Dog explores the life cycle of the Mexican prairie dog, the species' contribution to a healthy ecosystem, and the ways farming has destroyed their habitat and made them an endangered species.

Perfect for preschoolers and pre-readers, this charming and informative read-aloud introduces curious kids to one unique animal that is NOT a dog!
