Hector Protector is a board book for infants by Tracey Campbell Pearson. It measures 5.9 x 5.9 x 0.4 inches and has 14 pages. It is a nursery rhyme that toddlers can relate to. The book is about a little boy with a big, fluffy dog called Hector Protector.
About Hector Protector
Pre-School Nursery rhymes are a natural for the board-book set, and Campbell sensibly sets them in a child's home rather than in a Mother Goose fantasy land. Hector shows a toddler (a boy) dressing a large, patient dog in a green hooded sweatshirt, a scarf, and a sock.
When the dog leaps upon the child's parents, they are not amused, so the dog beats a retreat. The child follows and cuddles up to him for comfort.
Hector Protector Review
"Pearson's soft-edge drawings, washed with gentle colors, will appeal to young children, who love to watch their peers in action." -- Booklist
