What is it like to be a puppy? What's going on in their minds? In this adaptation for young readers, Alexandra Horowitz answers those questions all kids have--and more!

Many people don't have the privilege of meeting their dog the day they were born. They don't know what it was like when their puppy took their first steps, or how wet their nose was, or if they got along with their siblings. Alexandra Horowitz is a dog scientist who had the lucky opportunity to be by her puppy's side on the day he was born, and was able to put her dog science skills to good use and study her dog, Quid's, every move, from birth until her first birthday.

Readers will delight in observing Quid's development week to week. How she begins to see and smell the world, how she interacts with her human family of five, and when she starts to develop her own personality. Equal parts scientific and adventurous, Alexandra Horowitz's deep study of her own puppy is a enticing read for readers of all ages.

Whether they're a dog person or not, Year of the Puppy will engage all readers. . . and maybe might even turn some reluctant humans into dog-lovers.
