INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Peter Bailey. Although his humans think Jack, a yellow Labrador retriever, is not too bright, he ably and humorously provides for the mother of his puppies and rescues his human who has a broken leg. Jack, who narrates, has a dog's understanding of the human world, giving the story the breathless quality of a bouncy puppy, sometimes tedious but often funny.
