Reviews
Kirkus Reviews
"The brown, bouffant-ed Pierre is appealing, and his desire to rescue friends in need is undeniably praiseworthy."
Canadian Materials
"A gentle story of a tender hearted pup who, in seeking to assuage his own loneliness, discovers others' greater needs and takes steps to resolve them. Recommended."
School Library Journal
“The author has created a safe, child-friendly world in which humans are more than happy to provide homes for vagrant pups. Pierre’s fans will welcome this sequel . . .”
