Dear Mrs. LaRue: Letters from Obedience School

32 pp. | Scholastic | September, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-439-20663-4 $$15.95
(3) K-3 After he misbehaves yet again, dog Ike is sent away to obedience school; the book's amusing narrative is his letters to his owner lamenting his sorry circumstances. Gray illustrations on one side of the page show the prisonlike conditions that Ike describes, while full-color acrylic paintings on the other depict the spa where he is actually staying.
