Dog Show There is a dog show today. Mom and I are going together. Mom bought us tickets because she knows dogs are my favorite animals.
Page 5
There are many dogs at the show. I like to look at the size of the dogs. Some are longer than others, and some are shorter than others.
Page 6
I want to find the longest dog at the dog show. Mom and I look around the room. We see many long dogs. Mom will help me measure them.
Page 7
We need to find something to use to measure the dogs. I have an idea. I ask mom if we can use our hands to measure the dogs.
Page 8
Mom places her hand next to mine. She says our hands are not the same length. Her hands are longer than mine. We need to measure with objects that are the same length.
Page 9
Mom finds some cans of dog food. The cans are all the same length. Mom asks if we can use them. We will measure the dogs by laying the cans end-to-end.
Page 10
We measure the dogs from nose to tail. The white dog is 9 cans long. The brown dog is 10 cans long. The brown dog is longer than the white dog.
Page 11
The brown dog is one of my favorite dogs. Is it the longest dog at the show? We will have to measure the length of more dogs. Mom and I will search for more dogs.
Page 12
I see a tan dog and a spotted dog. We measure their lengths. The tan dog is 8 cans long, and the spotted dog is 7 cans long. The brown dog is still the longest. 10
Page 13
Mom and I measure almost all of the big dogs. We have not found one longer than the brown dog. There are two dogs left. One has white fur, and the other dog is gray. 11
Page 14
When we measure the white dog, we see it is 10 cans long. The gray dog is 12 cans long. It is longer than the brown dog. We found the longest dog at the show! 1
Page 15
Now I want to find the shortest dog at the dog show. It will be easier to measure the small dogs. We see some small dogs together. Mom will help me measure them. 1
Page 16
We need to find something to use to measure the small dogs. Mom sees a box of dog combs. Each comb is the same length. Mom asks if we can use them to measure the dogs. 1
Page 17
Now Mom and I will measure the small dogs. Mom and I lay the combs end-to-end next to each dog. We measure each dog from nose to tail. I guess which dog is the shortest. 1
Page 18
The white dog is 5 combs long. The black dog is 6 combs long. The gray dog is only 4 combs long. So far, the gray dog is the shortest dog at the show. 1
Page 19
Mom thinks the gray dog is the shortest dog here. Is there a dog that is shorter than 4 combs? It would be a very small dog. Mom and I will measure more dogs. 1
Page 20
Mom and I measure two more dogs. The long-haired dog is 5 combs long. The short-haired dog is 7 combs long. The gray dog is still the shortest dog. 1
