If You Give a Dog a Donut by Laura Joffe Numeroff
1.0
Ludicrous tale of an obviously, by description of the poor diet this animal is subjected to, neglected dog with what appears to be a severe case of undiagnosed ADD.
This jumps all over the place. First it needs more apple juice (which, surprise upon surprise, it's owners are out of. Thus, proving their inability to adequately provide for their pets nutritional needs).
Hopped on refined sugar with inadequate supervision the dog flits about and ends up in danger situations like climbing a tree for fruit picking. ADD, clearly untreated by prescription medication, sees the protagonist full circle to where all of the problems began, once again turning unhealthy foods, doughnuts, for comfort.
I will give one star for the dogs remarkable ability to complete tasks like playing baseball and apple picking with no opposable thumbs and the cute way the dogs butt is drawn in the photo of him holding his bowl and peering into the screen door (more proof of neglect from the owners for being locked out of the home).
