"Everyone has a place in the world, and a purpose for their life. It's not always easy to figure out what they are, but once you know, it changes everything."Purple Pup is a story of action, friendship, and suspense. If you enjoy stories that are told from an animal's perspective, this should be at the top of your reading list.Purple Pup contains over 90 illustrations, created by artist Joshua Lagman. These images combined with Karl Steam's fast paced storytelling have created a book that even reluctant readers will enjoy."A wonderfully written, heartwarming children's story about friendship, adventure, and loyalty... The appealing narrative is written in bite-size chapters, and mainly from an animal perspective, inter-spaced with some of the humans' tale in order to enhance the reader's understanding of the situation that Lav, or Purple Pup, finds himself in. Filled with action and suspense, this imaginative tale is bound to capture the hearts of child and parent alike."Reviewed By K.J. Simmill for Readers' Favorite - 5 Stars
