Review

Max has his first new puppy and he has named him Monty. It is Max's job to attend to all Monty's needs. Monty shouldn't be too hard to take care of, right? Max is in for a big surprise, especially on Monty's first night. Monty "howled and he hooted, and he yapped and he yelped, and he wailed and he whined, and he sniffled and he snuffles, and he...peed on the floor!" Poor Max is beside himself. What to do? With oversized and simple illustrations, colorful and perfectly complementing the text, this will be a great addition to picture shelves everywhere and might serve as a good lesson to children begging for that first pet!

Overall Book Score: very good
