This story (about a boy who brings a puppy home) is told from the boy's point-of-view, but the illustrations are another matter!The boy says, "I am teaching my puppy how to heel" and we see the boy wrapped in the leash... the puppy straining to break free and play. The boy says, "...he already knows how to fetch" and we see him throwing a stick. On the following page, an angry lady is chasing the puppy... who is running away from her with a lady's hat in his mouth!
The story ends on a sweet note.
I really love how the Little Critter books focus on events that are real to children, and focus so much on the family in such a positive, light way.
And my children love this book.
