"Baby Dog Beans Comes Home" has been reviewed in the Bloomsbury
Review's March/April issue by Mayra Calvani:
What is it about golden retrievers that makes a
dog lover, young or old, go wild? In Baby Dog Beans Comes Home,
author Jennie Hale Book captures the sweet "magic" of
these gentle, devoted, intelligent dogs while offering young children
an important message they can identify with. The story is seen from
the perspective of Paul, the older dog who until now has been the
only "child" in the family, and Beans, the new baby brother.
More than anything, Beans wishes to be accepted by his older brother,
but Paul is not ready to be friends, play catch, or share any of
his toys. As a matter of fact, Paul liked it a lot better when it
was just him. All this changes when Beans runs into serious trouble
and Paul rescues him. As Paul realizes in the end, "Itıs not
always easy when a new brother or sister comes into the family.
But even if youıre not best friends right away give them a chance
and youıll have someone whoıll be there for you your whole life.
And thatıs pretty great." This is a book that can be read to
a very young child, and one that early readers will relish on their
own. The large, adorable photographs are sure to delight people
of all ages.
