Pansy is a shelter dog.
All the other dogs get new homes, but Pansy is always left behind until
one day a little girl with curly brown hair named Avery took her home. This little poodle can’t believe her new home,
The Palace Hotel in Beverly Hills
and when jewelry mysteriously disappears, Pansy helps solve the mystery. This delightful story is told from Pansy’s own
point of view.
This is a wonderful book in so many ways. Pansy
at the Palace will appeal to a wide age range, from non-readers to early
school age. The pages are thick, sturdy
tear-resistant pages which are perfect for younger children, and the story is
intricate enough to interest early school aged children. My two-year old
granddaughter loved it. I appreciated that
the story was about shelter pets and the adoption of Pansy.
The pen & ink and watercolor illustrations by Kim
Weissenborn are outstanding. This is a large hard cover book at about 12 ¼”
long and 9 ¼” wide. The detailed illustrations
fill the page beautifully and the colors are bright and appealing.
I highly recommend this book and I think it would make a perfect
gift book.
I received a review copy of this book in return
for an honest and fair review. I provide a link to Amazon.com to purchase
the book, but it is only as a courtesy and I receive no compensation if
purchased.
