Puppies on Board

by [ABPBC]

Eleven puppies born aboard a boat equals excitement and mayhem. Mollie’s dog, Sheba, is the proud mom and Mollie names all the puppies according to their personality. As the pups start exploring, chewing and getting into everything, life becomes quite hectic. Mollie hatches the brilliant idea of inviting all her friends for an afternoon tea party to observe all the cute puppies. By the end of the day, all eleven puppies have found loving homes. The large print and beautiful watercolour illustrations add to the heart-warming storyline.
