My husband is in the process of selling books our children read last year in order to by new ones for this year and I was reminded of this sweet series of books by Ellen Miles called The Puppy Place. If your children love puppies and are just starting to read chapter books, then I highly recommend this series.
The first book in the series is called Goldie:
Charles and Lizzie Peterson love puppies. They want a puppy of their own more than just about anything. They know dogs are a lot of work, but their mom still doesn't think their family is ready for a puppy. Then, Goldie arrives. She is a sweet golden retriever that needs a home. Goldie is very young and she doesn't know how to be a good puppy yet. Will Charles and Lizzie be able to help her?
