Woof: A Bowser and Birdie Novel by Spencer Quinn
3.0
I confess I don't bring a lot of criticism to dog books. They're generally light and pleasant and inconsequential. This book is no exception.
It's a perfectly cromulent dog book, with a plucky (human) female protagonist ( Birdie), in addition to a dog named Bowser. Birdie & Bowser both have old-fashioned names. They have adventures and solve mysteries. 'Nuff said. :)
This is one of those stories that's told by the dog. That's not my favorite kind of dog book. But Spenser Quinn writes dogs reasonably well, considering Bowser is a dog that IMMEDIATELY bonds with his human and minds right away. He's the kind of dog that humans wish all dogs were.
