Delightful. Great choice for young, independent readers.
The realistic sibling ambivalence of the human boy Nick, and the believably dog-like emotional reactions and understandings of his puppy-sister Aleasha, help make the story feel real. It's funny and charming throughout. The illustrations are exceptionally well in tune with the story. Kids will love it, and adults will be charmed too.
