This was a good and interesting book about a dog that runs away from home and has many adventures. You would not be able to guess what the adventures are at a million years.

A somewhat odd and obscure children's book. But the art is approachable and the writing is kind of brilliant. Not sure how well a toddler would appreciate it though.

Jennie the Terrier is so cute, and the rhyme is such fun to read aloud.

How fortunate is it that my unabashed attempts at trying to squeeze through to 50 books this year can include such a lovely little volume? I connected with the main character, Jennie, over her constant desire to eat, vague wanderlust, and being a dog. The illustrations are perfect and the story is sweet. Saving this on the off-chance that I ever have kids (whom I also presumably like enough to read good stories to).
