About this ebook
PUPPY GETS HIS OWN BOOK. Kitty's best friend stars in this zany companion to the best selling BAD KITTY.
Poor, poor Puppy: Kitty isn't interested in playing, so all puppy's left with are: 1 Airplane, 2 Balls, 3 Cars, 4 Dolls... and 22 other toys. When he's done, Puppy's so tired, he takes a nap--and dreams of playing apple bobbing in Antarctica, Baseball in Brazil, Checkers in Canada, Dodgeball in Denmark... and 22 other games. Who else but Nick Bruel could combine the alphabet, a counting game, a whirlwind geography course, and a screamingly funny story... all in 40 pages (previously titled Poor Puppy)?

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Puppy, who was introduced at the very end of Bad Kitty, Nick Bruel's debut book about his badly behaved feline heroine, returns in this second picture-book, eager to play with his best friend. When Bad Kitty refuses to play with him, Puppy engages in a 1-26, A-Z list of activities, with his elusive feline companion (unbeknownst to him) keeping an eye on him. Then Puppy takes a nap, and dreams of another A-Z range of fun things he and Kitty could do together in various countries around the world. When he wakes up, he is delighted to discover that Bad Kitty is ready to play! Or is she...?Like its predecessor, Poor Puppy and Bad Kitty is an alphabet book which features an amusing story, in this case that of a playful puppy who dreams of a companion who will join him in all of his fun activities. Nick Bruel adds counting and geography elements in this second picture-book, as Puppy's first A-Z sequence also features numbers, while his second one features countries, making this a title that addresses multiple early-learning concepts. Although I rated this one three stars, mostly because I have seen how well children take to the Bad Kitty books, and appreciate both the humor and the creative mixture of story and concept displayed here, I cannot honestly say that I found it that entertaining. The artwork isn't really to my taste - it feels a little flat to me - and overall the book felt a little too busy. Still, tastes vary, and as mentioned above, I have seen many children really take to the Bad Kitty books, so parents in the market for concept books might want to give this one a try, especially if their youngster enjoys silly humor.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I like the part where kitty sneaks up on puppy ??
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am a long time fan of Bad Kitty. And this was a perfect excuse to revisit Poor Puppy. I swear I am raising poor puppy right now. With all the things he plays with and all the dreams he has of going places. This book is fun, colorful, and a tongue twisting hayride of a fun story. More Please.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Puppy's best friend is Kitty. Puppy is sad because Kitty doesn't want to play with him. So puppy begins to play with other things instead of Kitty. He began to play with everything from one airplane to twenty-six zoo animals. But after playing with so many things made him exhausted so he took a nap. While he napped he began to dream of playing with Kitty. He dreamed that they played baseball in Brazil, and were even wrestling in Washington D.C. After puppy woke up he was the happiest puppy ever and was ready to play again. But kn ow he thought Kitty was really going to play with him. This is a cute story about a very rare friendship. It seems like puppy wants to be friends with Kitty but Kitty doesn't want to be his friend.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Poor puppy just wants to play with kitty. His dreams are in alphabet with places and things to play with.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5LOVED Bad Kitty and now I LOVE Poor Puppy even more!I really like how the author took Poor Puppy up a notch from Bad Kitty, advancing the books as the readers advance. This book should definitely be used in conjunction with Bad Kitty and should build help build on the activity suggested for Bad Kitty. This book is a great book for children just starting to explore letters, words and sentences nad how they can all work together.
