Book Description:
Candace’s Playful Puppy is for every boy or girl who has ever
wanted a dog and every parent who knows the responsibility that goes along with
caring for a new pet. Written by New York Times bestselling author
and actress Candace Cameron Bure, laugh along with this story of a little girl
who visits a pet shelter to adopt a cuddly new dog and comes home with a
rambunctious pup instead.
Candace’s Playful Puppy is a picture book for
ages 4 to 8 that teaches kids:
How to be faithful to your commitments
To never give up when you face a tough situation
That patience is a skill that takes a lot of practice and
hard work
When Candace’s new pup, Freckles, doesn’t pay attention to
her instructions, Candace’s patience is tested and her excitement over the new
pet quickly fades. Freckles escapes … but ends up making a muddy return.
Candace realizes that being a great dog mommy isn’t as easy as she thought.
My Thoughts:
Candace Cameron Bure has written a thoughtful story of a little girl who needs
to understand the commitment needed to take care of a puppy. Candace expects an
easy-going cuddle puppy, instead she takes home a pup who loves to run and get
into things. This sweet story is a great one to read to a child who’s preparing
to adopt a pet. It will help them understand the responsibility of owning a
puppy, and the frustration that sometimes comes from having a pet who doesn’t
listen. Christine Battuz’s delightful illustrations add fun and entertainment
to the story. And make sure to watch for Harry the hamster on each spread. I
received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review
