Japanese edition of [Mud-Puddle Poodle] by Tui T. Sutherland. Rosie loves everything to be pretty and organized, so when she's finally allowed to get her own dog, she chooses an adorable, precious... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Ten-year-old Rosie is a girlie girl. She likes pink fingernail polish, and sweet, quiet, pretty things. She doesn't get much of the sweet, quiet and pretty things at home, though, because she has four older brothers. Four. Four older brothers. Rosie is overwhelmed with noise and dirt. So when she has a chance to vote for what kind of dog her family should get, she has already researched the answer -- she wants a cute, white, fluffy, princessy dog -- a toy poodle. Finally she will be able to have a sweet, quiet, pretty pet. Rosie had some surprises in store when she won the vote and brought home her cute little ball of white-and-honey-colored fur. Buttons thought digging in the dirt and then rolling in it was so much fun! After four baths just in the first day, Rosie knew she needed a solution -- fast. Themes of patience, cooperation and family unity make this a fun book for girlie girls who love princesses and pink. A much younger protagonist than the first two books (Runaway Retriever (Pet Trouble) and Loudest Beagle On The Block (Pet Trouble)). This book stands alone -- characters in the first two books are only peripheral to this story. For girls 9-11.
