Book Description
for Boodil My Dog by Pija Lindenbaum and Gabrielle Charbonnet
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
According to the narrator of this story, Boodil the bullterrier is the most amazing dog in the world -- only her remarkable self-control keeps her from tearing the dreaded vacuum cleaner to pieces, for example. While Boodil's adoring owner describes all of her dog's endearing and impressive qualities, viewers get quite a different picture from the illustrations of a quite ordinary, slightly lethargic, pink-tummied, overstuffed sausage of a dog who is, indeed, everything her enthusiastic owner imagines her to be -- and more! (Ages 3-7)
