This review is from: Lucy on the Loose (A Stepping Stone Book(TM)) (Library Binding)

Lucy on the Loose is about a dog that gets on the loose. The owner chased the dog all over town. I couldn't put it down because it was so exciting!

A Kid's Review

I am 7 years old and I think this book is a very good book.
This book is about 2 boys that lost Lucy the dog and find her at the
baseball game. They meet a lady who wants her cat. The boys told her that she had an orange cat and they said they had seen her cat because Lucy was chasing her cat. At the end of the story the cat was sleeping and the dog was tired and the boys have a party.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lucy on the Loose, March 29, 2008

By	Jacqueline Bickel (Huntsville, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I work with children who are either having problems reading or who are possibly having self esteem problems in the regular classroom. I bring my pet partner (bitsie a miniature daschund) into the school and the children (who are chosen by their teacher) read to her. I have been able to see them loose shyness and gain more confidence in their ability to read as the year has progressed. There are about 10 teams of dogs and their partners going into a local school and the kids really enjoy seeing them. I have found that short chapter book such as this are very good books for them to read.
