Princess Madison and the Paisley Puppy

Finding books with my grandchild's name in them makes them feel important. They love these books.

Ideal for young readers who are almost ready to make the transition from picture books to chapter bo

Award finalist author Karen Scalf Linamen presents Princess Madison and the Paisley Puppy, a vibrant picturebook featuring a most unorthodox young princess. Princess Madison isn't terribly ladylike at all - she has dirt under her nails, freckles on her nose, and marbles in her pocket. She tries to be good, but sometimes she breaks the rules without meaning to. When she discovers a young puppy and wants to make a home for it at the castle, she quickly learns what a handful puppies can be to take care of! Madison tells her father the king, "'I thought having a secret puppy would be fun,' Madison said. 'But it didn't turn out like I thought it would.' He nodded. 'Secrets are like that.'" The detailed text of Princess Madison and the Paisley Puppy is ideal for young readers who are almost ready to make the transition from picture books to chapter books, and the colorful illustrations boldly display Princess Madison's enthusiasm. Highly recommended.
