Slippers is the family puppy. He lives in a little house inside of a bigger house. He lives with four people, Edward, Laura, Mommy and Daddy. Edward is little like Slipper, a baby. Laura is the older sibling, they like to play together. Mommy carries Edward and Slipper around the house. Daddy and Slipper like to go on walks. The book was average and geared for toddler audience.
Good book to reassure babies and toddlers of their place in, and love within, their family. Plot revolves around the puppy as an integral part of this family. Lengthy book for this age bracket, but definitely for the younger set.
For ages 18 months to 5 years.

This is a great book to talk about characterization. I would give the students a paper with four sections. In the four sections, we as a class would talk about each of the four characters in the book. On the back, I would talk about the characterization of Slippers.
slippers is a dog who wants to go to school with his owner laura. he hides in her backpack and goes to school. Others see him but not Laura. he has quite an adventure.
The slippers series are just really great picture books. The stories are great and the pictures are so cute. The stories are such that they actually keep the attention of the kids that it is being read to.
Would have been 5 stars but I couldn't stop wondering "How does that kid not feel a dog in her backpack?" I mean, wouldn't it be pretty heavy if you went from carrying a ruler to carrying a whole dog?
Cute story about a dog going to school. It does go through some of the different places in the school. Wasn't what I was expecting through.
this was really cute!

I was born in Camden, New Jersey in 1949 and lived in Oaklyn and Cherry Hill until the middle of sixth grade. Then we moved to Springfield, Illinois. My parents were avid readers and they gave that love of books and reading to me and to all my brothers and sisters. I didn’t think about being a writer at all back then, but I did love to read. I'm certain there's a link between reading good books an...more
