Antoinette by Kelly DiPucchio
Antoinette is probably more a 2.5 than a three. There is something missing for me. Plus, the illustrations and I just are not meshing as I would have liked. Kelly DiPucchio is the author of the companion book Gaston as well as this one. If you do not know who Gaston is, that is fine. His story is told as needed to fit Antoinette’s story. However, you do not necessarily need to know who he was. But, of course, it does not hurt to have […]
The Rainbow Bridge by Adrian Raeside
So unfortunately I’m reviewing The Rainbow Bridge again! I reviewed it last year for my Two Heads are Better than One square when I lost my Ernie. Now I’m doing a repeat for my Two Heads are Better than One square this year because I lost my Oscar. It’s never easy to lose a dog (unless you’re a MONSTER). I feel like it’s even harder when you have to share your loss with two little girls who don’t know life without him. Oscar was my […]
Open and Shut by David Rosenfelt
First Degree by David Rosenfelt
Dog Tags by David Rosenfelt
Ok these three together actually makes sense! They’re all from the same series, and they’re all about a lawyer who loves his dog. Any one of these books can fulfill my “I Love This” bingo square, because I love dogs, and I love legal thrillers. In real life, I love dogs more, so don’t worry about me! Here’s #1! I again started a series at book number 1. I think CBR is reforming my ways. In this book, we’re introduced to Andy, who is a […]
In Made by Maxine by Ruth Spiro
Builder Brothers: Big Plans by Jonathan and Drew Scott
In reverse alphabetical order, this review covers two different books about building, about trying and not giving up. In Made by Maxine by Ruth Spiro, we see our heroine trying to figure out how to make things bigger and better. When she gets a pet fish (who she thinks is waving at her), she builds it the biggest, funniest, craziest fish tank as the bowl she had for him was just too dull. And how proud both are of it! That is until the class […]
I Am a Wolf by Kelly Leigh Miller
I am a cat person. Well, actually more of a pet rock person, but that’s another story. It is not that I do not like dogs, I just know that they are a lot of work, need a lot of love and time. And I know I cannot give that to any pet. However, I know that, like in I Am a Wolf if I did decide to get a pet, there would be the perfect one for me. Kelly Leigh Miller has made a […]
Good Dad Diego by Brenna Maloney
Father’s Day is around the corner. And while I do not remember getting books for my dad, books are always a great gift for Father’s Day. What better way to celebrate Dad with a book that child and Pop can read together? And with Good Dad Diego we get a straight forward story with a few funnies about a dad dog. Diego wants to be a Good Doggie Dad and he is. Even though it means telling his kids not to poop on the floor, […]
