Boys Are Dogs by Leslie Margolis

2.0

Annabelle and her mother move in to a new house, in a new town with her mom's new boyfriend. Previously Annabelle has gone to an all girls school so she is now in the 6th grade with boys and finds out how unruly they can be.

At the same time, Anabelle gets a puppy and must train him using the manual she got. As time goes on she realizes the same principles that train dogs can also train boys to stop kicking her seat, and other things. It would be a good read for girls who like animals and maybe for girls who are in middle school and wonder why boys can be so animal-like.
