Guinea Dog

  • Patrick Jennings


Rufus has been dreaming of getting a dog. His best friend has one. His worst friend has one. But his dad has a few objections: They whine. They gnaw. They bark. They scratch. They beg. They drool.

Rufus pays no attention when his mom offers her think-outside-the-box suggestion, because she can't be serious. She can't be.

She can be. And she actually comes home with a guinea pig. And if Rufus's dad thinks dogs are a problem, he won't know what hit him when he meets the Guinea Pig that Thinks She's a Dog. She barks. She bites. She'll eat your homework.

Praise for Guinea Dog

Praise for GUINEA DOG:

"Jennings' salute to kids who get less (and more) than they ask for offers a unique and hilarious take on boy-dog bonding... Jennings injects magic realism into a story filled with believable yet flawed characters, resulting in a satisfying story. Short, manageable chapters; a breezy, conversational style; and identifiable characters (the bully, the show-off, the obsessive stay-at-home dad) make this a good choice for [listeners] making the transition to chapter books."--Booklist

"A very funny book...would be particularly great for fifth-grade boys."--Wired.com
