From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Grade 2-4-- A disjointed story about the summer days of a soon-to-be-third-grader who wants a dog. Plot development is fragmented and illogical at times. The inconsistent characterization of the parents sends mixed messages about their son, whom they think needs improvement before he is allowed to have a pet. Billy is a likable, regular kid, and one whom other kids would like to know. His parents call him "irresponsible," but all summer they have trusted him to walk blocks, cross at the light, and spend his free time with the local veterinarian, exercising her strays. When Billy's grandfather comes to visit, he see the responsible side of his grandson, and Billy's favorite stray is brought home to him. Young readers may accept the parental incongruities as normal, but the book is unnecessary in most library collections. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Did you evey hear of a kid eating dog biscuits... and liking them? Well, in the book, "The Boy Who Ate Dog Biscuits," Billy is so crazy about dogs that he sneaks dog biscuits for snacks! Billy really wants a dog of his own, but his parents won't let him. Billy is aways getting into trouble with his best friend, Howard, so his parents think Billy is not responsible. What Billy's parents don't know is that Billy works hard and helps Dr. Mike, the vet, take care of the dogs. When Billy falls in love with a stray dog at the vet's, it's a race against time to convince his parents that he can have a dog of his own, before someone else takes it!
This book is so gross (eating dog biscuits) that it's funny! If you like dogs and funny stories, you should read this book. It's so good I want to buy it! |
