Wags was a worrier, when her brothers, and sisters played joyfully, Wags worried about unexpected dangers. During a trip to the farmer's market, Wags worst fears came about. She got lost from her family, and looked everywhere for them. How they finally found Wags was very interesting, and a big relief for the little worrier.

This is a sweet tale about a worrisome, but very adorable puppy who gets separated from her family during a trip to the farmer's market, but ends up having quite an adventure. The story is entertaining to read aloud and tells a cautionary story about sticking with your parents so you don't get separated. The illustrations are colorful and cartoonish and really help to tell the story from the young pup's perspective. We enjoyed reading this book together.

This is a book I would read around the first week of school to help with the children who are worrisome. The illustrations were adorable! I had empathy for Wags when she lost her parents.
