Officer Buckle knows more about safety than anyone else in Napville, but his dull presentations put his audiences to sleep. Enter Gloria, Napville's new police dog. Gloria knows just how to liven up the safety speeches--as long as Officer Buckle's back is turned!

While it is not a favorite of mine, I can see how Officer Buckle and Gloria is beloved. It has mayhem, it has companionship, it has humor. And the relationship between dog and police officer always intrigues audiences. ( )

A classic picture book that fails to engage. ( )

This book is appropriate for 2nd-4th graders, and has won a Caldecott Medal.
