Fun book to read. Can be engaging for kids when the reader makes the “wah woo roo” sound that Lucy the dog makes. ( )

Lucy , a small white dog, is adopted from an animal shelter just in time. But adjusting to her new home and family is tough on her and her new family. Lucy can’t seem to stop howling; she howls all day and night. In this sweet, simply but beautifully illustrated story, we follow Lucy and her family on their journey to love, understanding and acceptance. This wonderful picture book is perfect for sharing with preschoolers who will be certain to ask you to read it to them again and again.

The art is reminiscent of a typical third or fourth grade artist, which I think kids will enjoy. The story is cute, that of adopting a dog from the pound having to try and figure out what is wrong as he howls all the time. After trying many things lucy finally figures out he is lonely, shared one of her toys, then the dog is happy. ( )

Nice story about how a pound puppy learns to be happy in his new house ... with toys! ( )
