This book in particular was my favorite one yet! It was about two little girls that lived with their grandparents and they were going to be getting a new puppy. They already had an older dog-named Rosie, but they are about to get a puppy named Floyd. The illustrations show us exactly what is going on and how the characters are feeling. Rosie the older dog is unsure about Floyd at first, but in the end appreciates having him around. The two little girls also realize that they are happy to show more have each other as siblings. I think the message of this story is that we can find the good in all things. I also really enjoyed reading this book, because I remember what it felt like to get a new puppy when I was little. show less

Eliza and Isabelle are two young girls excited to get a brand new puppy. They are worried, however, about how their older dog Rosie will react to it. Once Rosie meets the puppy, she's apprehensive but eventually warms up to it. This reminds Isabelle about how she was unsure about getting a baby sister but now loves Eliza. This is a cute, simple, wholesome story about puppies and sisters that love each other. There's not much substance to it but who says all books need to be deep? I liked it show more and it reminded me of me and my sister's relationship. show less

I loved this book, but then again I always love a book about a dog. This book is very short, but it gets the point across and the picture drawn great. The book is predominately about a girl taking care of her grandpa's dog while he is at work, but it is also about building friendship.

This book is about two sister getting a new puppy and are not sure if their old dog will get along with Floyd the new puppy. At first Rosie the old dog didn't really get along with Floyd but by the end of the book Rosie started to like Floyd. This book could teach children to give things a chance you might not like someone or something at first but after a while you might start too.
