How to Be a Good Puppy

HOW TO BE A GOOD PUPPY, told in the puppy’s voice, is about a new pet wanting to learn how to be a good puppy....and explaining how its new owner can help. As the story progresses, we realize that not only is the child training the puppy, but the puppy is training the child. And they both feel very proud! This charming, mischievous story is a perfect fit for every family who has recently acquired a puppy, as well as for any child who dreams of having one.Seymour Simon, whom the New York Times called 'the dean of the [children’s science] field,' is the author of over 300 highly acclaimed science books, more than seventy-five of which have been named Outstanding Science Trade Books for Children by the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA).Seymour Simon has been honored with many awards for his work, including the American Association for the Advancement of Science/Subaru Lifetime Achievement Award for his lasting contribution to children’s science literature; The Washington Post/Children’s Book Guild Award for Non-fiction; and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Forum on Children’s Science Books. Doug Cushman has illustrated over 130 children’s books, thirty or so of which he wrote as well.
