***GUEST POST BY 4TH GRADE CRAIG***
In September, when Darla reviewed the excellent book, The Secret of Wellington’s Map, the PR folks for Planet of the Dogs
Planet of the Dogs
My favorite character was a man named BIK (pronounced B-I-K.) I liked him because he was very active and caring for his friends and family.
My favorite part was at the end when they were in the woods and then the dogs started barking and then troops started chopping down trees and BIK told BIC — another captain — that he was in charge. Then BIK ran out to his children and he saw a crash site over a hill into water. BIK knew they could not swim, so he jumped down and saw two vicious dogs. He thought they killed Nikki and Nik, then he took a sword out of his picket and heard a deep voice say they did not kill your children they saved your children. He turned around and saw troops armed and then he booked across the river.
His children were there and they said, “We will give them back if you declare peace.” BIK reached in his pocket and took out a horn and blew it and then he said, “I declare peace.”
People my age who dogs would love this book. I recommend it!

Good Goin’ Craig!! Reading about BIK, the dog, being pronounced B-I-K reminds me of a friend of mine who had a dog named Deeogee (D-O-G)…….cute huh?

Nice job C.
How long did it take you to read this book?
Would it be good for a 7 year old in 2nd grade who loves to read?
