Larrew, Brekka Hervey. Labradoodles. Capstone Press: 2009. ISBN: 9781429620093.
For people seeking information on Labradoodles, this book is exceptional. It is well organized and easy to follow. The table of contents readily identifies the book’s topics, and it a breeze to navigate through the entire book. The layout and color scheme of the pages are enticing to the reader. Most pages are bordered with a darker purple background, fading into a soft lilac. This gives the reader a sense of comfort, making it seem as if this type of dog would provide the same aesthetic feeling. Real life snap shots also accompany the text. Many have captions, truly showing the physical attributes and temperament of the breed. Within the text, there are bold-faced words which are defined at the bottom of the page. Interpretation of the information is easily comprehended with detailed descriptive sentences. At the back of the book, there is a glossary which contains the bold-faced words. What I really like is the page where there are two additional sections: Read More and Internet Sites. This provides the reader with an extension to the informational text. The last page is the Index, allowing the reader to quickly refer back to the page of a certain topic.
