(3) PS Illustrated by Patricia Casey. A young boy affectionately recites a list of good and bad points about being the owner of a new puppy: "The good thing is, you get to walk him every day. The bad thing is, he wants to go his own way." Lighthearted watercolors ably capture the canine's exuberant nature. There's no story here, but kids with pups for pets will surely agree with the boy when he states, "the best thing is, a puppy is a friend."
