Genre: This is an excellent example of fantasy. You have animals who talk and take on the roles of humans. Arthur's aardvark family is characteristic of the make belief and imaginary elements of a fantasy tale. The characters in this book take on human characteristics that you would expect in the situations presented. You have upset and frustrated parents who don't like the puppy destroying their home. You have a annoying yet almost helpful sister who seems to get in the way more than she means to. And then you have Arthur, who is fearful that if his puppy is not properly trained will be taken away.

I didn't think it was all that great, but it's a safe read for a 3 year old although some of the behavior displayed in the story is annoying ...

I think I will welcome Arthur into our family!

This was one of the books I read for my read aloud, and i really liked it. Arthur's whole collection is classic and the way little kids can relate to it makes it a favorite. This one was about Arthur getting a new puppy and all the responisbilites and mistakes that occur along the way!

day, his friends tell him scary stories about when they had a bad puppy their parents got rid of the the puppy. So after school Arthur rushed home to start training Pal. After a few days, Arthur had Pal trained. He wanted to show his parents how goof Pal was, so he had a show for them to showcase Pals' tricks. After the show, Arthur's parents decided to allow Arthur to keep the puppy in the house because they were so proud of him.

I really enjoyed this book because it shows kids what they can expect when they have a pet and what goes into caring for the animal. It also shows them that if you work hard and are persistent about something, it will pay off in the end. It teaches kids that pets take responsibility.

This book could have been extended by showing how Arthur trained his puppy to like his leash and enjoys going on walks.

I personal liked this book because Arthur never gave up on his dog. YOu should never give up on something and continue trying your best.

I really enjoyed this book. I was about 6 when I had my first experience with this book and I have loved it ever since. I really liked how it tied in realistic responsibilities with a fictional story. While the characters are talking aardvarks, the responsibilities of getting a puppy are realistic.

I think a child would really be interested in this story and maybe even learn something from it. They could also read the book and relate to it. They could see how Pal behaved in the book and relate it to their own experiences of owning a dog. Another thing I like about this book is the use of dialog. There is a lot of conversations and I think that is easier for some children to visualize. A fun was to read this book would be giving people parts and reading it similar to a play. You could have someone read the lines of each character and then one for the narrator! I also like how relatable this book was when it came to the plot and setting. The story takes place at Arthur's home and briefly at school. Anyone can relate to this and say that their dog messed up a room in their house. The pictures also enhance this story. You can really see the mess that Pal makes in the kitchen and then in the living room. The details in the illustrations are critical to the story. The main idea of this story is that it is a big responsibility to own and train a dog, but if you take the time and effort into the dog, it will be much easier along the way.

It's Arthur, it's a puppy. It is what it is, an episode.
