Six Short
stories about Martha the Dog –told in graphic novel format. In one adventure
Martha accidentally gets downloaded into Alice’s computer. In another adventure
Martha helps to solve a dog crime spree. In another Martha finds out that obstacle
course's are harder than they look! Another story features Martha’s movie star
dog crush and how she helps him to be a real off-screen hero.
Ok, I know I can
be a bit overly complimentary on anything graphic novel, but this was truly an excellent adaptation
from TV. The color are bright and vivid and the stories are fun and
entertaining. Students who are a fan of Martha the Dog will adore this book!
