Little Dog, Lost by Marion Dane Bauer- ESSENTIAL

Bauer, Marion Dane Little Dog, Lost. Illustrated by Jennifer A. Bell. 208 pgs. Atheneum Books for Young Readers, 2012.  $15.99. Content: G.

This story is about a boy who’s best friend is his dog, Buddy.  Unfortunately, he has to give his dog away when his family moves.  Buddy is given to a lady who is not very kind.  Just down the street from this unkind lady lives a boy named Mark. Mark has always wanted a dog. Read the story to find out how this boy who needs a dog finally gets one to love.  I liked this story and its illustrations.  The author wrote it in a way that made me feel like I was in the book.  I couldn’t put it down!  This is a great story for pet lovers everywhere. The ending is surprise that all children will love.  EL (K-3).  ESSENTIAL.  Reviewer: JL- age 10.
