Another sweet book in the series about Daisy the dog who thinksshe is a baby. In this book she gets into a lot of trouble with herpuppies and the baby. My children absolutely love this book.

All of Lisa Kopper's Daisy series are worthwhile additions to any child's collection. The pictures of Daisy the bull terrier, her gorgeous puppies, and the Real Baby, are beautiful and amusing, and the texts are witty and engaging. Our 18 month old baby adores them, but they are very appropriate for older toddlers and young children. I can't understand why the first book in the series, Daisy Thinks She's a Baby, is out of print. You don't have to be a bull terrier lover or a dog lover to love these books... but if you are a bull terrier lover, you will adore them.

Daisy is a hilarious little English bull terrier. The anvil headed dog teaches not only her puppies, but her owner's baby how to hop up on the sofa, open mail with their mouthes, pull off the table cloth and knock things over, drink from a bowl, tinkle on newspaper, dig holes in the garden and mess up the laundry. I laughed uproariously at the funny little mama dog lying under a copy of "Daisy is a Mommy" when she and her puppies were playing on the couch.

Daisy and Shiloh are my favorite literary dogs and Daisy will certainly find a permanent place in the hearts of all who encounter her.

Lisa Kopper is a gifted storyteller and illustrator. The baby, mother and the dogs come to vivid life in her delightful portrayals. I love her pre and postscript illustrations of what happens after Daisy lands in her mischief.
