The Pensive Pup — Susan C. Holden

This playful children's book tells the story of a real beagle named Sparky who ponders what he should do with his time when his family is away. The possibilities are endless. The story offers imaginative solutions to the "I'm BORED " conundrum. Lydia Aspen's delightful art compliments Susan Holden's wily words as Sparky ruminates about what to do with his time. The robust vocabulary is supported by a glossary. It also includes discussion questions, an art activity, and a rhyming exercise.
