THE BEST!!!!!

This is the Best book ever, and I can't believe it's out of print! It's REALLY, REALLY, REALLY funny, and if you've read it once, you'll read it again. It's a twist of animal humor, a LITTLE, TEENSY, WEENSY bit of romance, and, if I didn't make it clear enough before, HILARIOUS humor. The book's about a dog named Huey, who's telling the story, and his friend, Taxi. Huey's just a good natured hound, but Taxi is a fun loving cat. They soon meet up with Boots, another cat, but Taxi and Boots have a TON of disagreements, so they get off with a bad start. Soon, Taxi finds himself actually LIKING Boots, but she still hates him, and they get into a cat fight, so to speak, but eventually they make up. I can't write enough words to say how great this book is, so I'll cut it down to only nine: You've GOT to read this book!!!!! It's REALLY great!!!!!

The best book for a young reader

I read this book when I was beginning to read, and I oved it. It is a fun-filled book about three lovable animals who have crazy adventures together. It is not a difficult book to read, but it is great for children just beginning to read chapter books.

A sleeper!

This is a "laugh-out-loud" book. I recommend it to the reluctant readers in our school library and they are hooked and will read it again and again. I hope someone reprints it.
