5.0 out of 5 stars Great Holiday book!!, November 17, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Santa Paws (#1) (Paperback)

Santa Paws is about a dog who was a street dog with his family. But then, his family got taken by the pound so he's on his own. It's Christmas time and numerous people who see him try to take him home but, he's scared so he runs away. I like this book because it's so simple. He walks around all day... sometimes to the park... sometimes to the back of the pizza parlor to get a drink.... he's in a small town and you get the small town feeling you get when you watch "Gremlins". He saves about six or seven people's lives and ends up getting an owner. to find out who the owner is, read the book.

This review is from: Santa Paws (#1) (Paperback)

Santa Paws, a book for middle school kids about a puppy who is kinder and more caring than many humans. My then 7 year old enjoyed it, and I enjoyed reading it to him because there was a message included.

This dog, abandoned and homeless itself, goes out of its way to help people in need. The story is engaging enough to be a family read, which to us means a chapter or two a night, for several evenings.

Santa Paws
Some of my favorite parts in the book Santa Paws are when he saves people, and goes through a lot to get his home. It is sad his mother accidentally left him when he was a puppy. There are other books published of Santa Paws. There is a series of them listed in the book.In all the books, he saves people wherever he goes. I greatly recommend that you read this adventurous book of an adventurous dog because it makes you feel how lucky you are to have what you have and to be safe and not starving to death.
