Customer Reviews

A cute book for the little ones...

Bo has a new puppy pal that he calls "Pal". Bo discovers that Pal won't bark. Bo takes Pal on a walk & they meet friends & things along the way that make their own sounds. Bo tries to encourage Pal to speak but he doesn't. Until the very end that is. What does it take to make Pal speak up? This book is great for beginning readers. They will need some help along the way but it's pretty easy & enjoyable for them. The pictures are great as well. I'd recommend this book.
