Review

A great easy chapter book that is really entertaining and endearing. It's a good story to share about acceptance and introducing new people (or animals) into a family. Poppy think talks and it is written in a different font instead of using quotation marks. This is a neat introduction to that writing technique.

Overall Book Score: excellent
