Who Wants To Be A Poodle—I Don’t By Lauren Child

The graphics, patterns, and colours of this delightful collage-style book will fascinate and entertain children while they empathize with the plight of poor little Trixie Twinkle Toes, a pampered, poofy Poodle who yearns to be a real dog, splashing about in puddles, catching sticks, and being Dangerous and Daring. Totally misunderstood by her mistress who can’t understand what her little dog’s antics are trying to convey, it takes Trixie’s heroic escapade to finally make the glamorous Verity Brule realize just what her little dog has been trying to tell her all along. - Connie Wilson
