Two dogs, two different ways

Fred and Ted’s friendship is built around contrasts: one is big, the other little, and their preferences differ too. Bird, a helpful acquaintance, joins the picture-book story, which frames those differences as part of a friendship. As a Beginner Book, it pairs simple words with illustrations that offer clues to meaning, connecting the dogs’ familiar opposites with early independent reading.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children beginning to read on their own
  • Children who enjoy stories about dogs and friendship
  • Adults seeking an early reader with simple vocabulary and illustrative clues

Book overview

The classic picture book about two best friends who are opposites in every way, from the beloved author of Are You My Mother? and Go, Dog. Go!

Meet best friends Fred (Big Dog) and Ted (Little Dog) in P. D. Eastman's classic Beginner Book. Though one is big and one is little, and one loves green and one loves red, these pup pals--along with their helpful acquaintance, Bird--prove that opposites can be the very best of friends.

Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children.
