Poppy the Pirate Dog and the Missing Treasure by: Liz Kessler

I just picked up this book from my public library.  It is the perfect book for those readers that are ready to begin reading chapter books.  And what child doesn't like to read about dogs, especially a dog who thinks she is a pirate.  I love Pirates so that was my interest in Liz Kessler's book Poppy the Pirate Dog and the Missing Treasure.

Poppy and her family are planning a party for mom's birthday.  Poppy is protecting the "treasures" as she is a great pirate treasure protector.  When dad's gift to mom goes missing Poppy is on the case...however when Poppy goes running across the yard she falls and injures her eye.  When she has to go to the VET she hopes to get an eye patch, just like a real pirate.  However, when she comes home with a cone around her neck she isn't happy or feeling like a good pirate.  Can she still help the family find dad's gift?  What is that??  A walking rock??  You have to read this book to find out the surprise ending.


Happy Daily Reading
