Old Children's Book. Liked it as a kid, but haven't read it in years.

For an ebook app, this one is very good. Haven't read the story in years so it was fun to read again.

My daughter loves this book. I hate it. I honestly think the only reason she loves it is because she knows it’s super long so it will postpone her bedtime later than a better written shorter story. The main puppy is a jerk and somehow frequently gets rewarded for it. Also so many words to tell such a simple, stupid story. The illustrations are cute. That’s about all it’s got going for it.

I don't really understand the moral of this story. Be poky? Don't be poky? Sometimes disobedience has its rewards, sometimes it doesn't? Either way, it's not the most captivating, but the illustrations are cute.

Much like everyone, I've always loved this book.
I especially love the caterpillar, and the rhyming pell-mell, tumble-bumble bits!

I think it's perfectly acceptable that these trouble-making puppies don't get any dessert when they come home...since you shouldn't feed dogs chocolate pudding anyways.
