Dr Dog• In this book all the images are drawn, they are drawn with water

colours and colouring pencils. The people are meant to look quite off putting to make them be all gross and make them look as though they will always do things wrong. The colours in the book are quite dull but they use brighter colours for the important parts to make the children reading it focus more on them parts of the book. This book is for a little older children so theres a little more text, however the images still take up most of the page. The font is childlike and simple to go with the child like by making the dog have human characteristics (anthropomorphism). The author of this book is Babette Cole, she is also an animal lover this is why she picked a dog to be the main character in this book. This size of the book is 24.7 x 0.3 x 25.2 cm.
