Customer Reviews

A girl and her pup

This is a great story for kids who have dogs, kids who live in rural areas, or kids who wish they did. The illustrations are beautiful and the story of Annie learning what Bess wants and their growing bond is wonderful. Also talks about the sadness of being separated while Annie goes to school and the joy of reuniting when she comes home which could be helpful for kids who are leaving behind a pet when they go off to school.

Fabulous book, gifted author

This just one of Kim Lewis' books that we own, and we enjoy them each! The illustrations are incredible, the story in this (as with the others) is simple and easy to understand. This book in particular highlights the relationships that children have with their pets, and how changes in their lives impact the relationship. Also, this is a "must own" (along with Floss & Just Like Floss) for any Border Collie enthusiast. Enjoy!

Cute animal story

The title intrigued us since we have an "Annie" in our house. Good story, but not the most memorable of all time.
