Illustrated by
Abigail Halpin.
Bella doesn't care to follow the family rules--she much prefers her own: candy for breakfast, no hair-washing (ever), and no bedtime. Hoping to show her the value of obedience, her parents give her an equally wild puppy that she must help train. Bella's anarchic antics portrayed in effervescent illustrations are a match for this lively tale of tables turned.
