A Boy Who Wants A Dog 4 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.
This story is about a boy, Edward Frost, who wants a dog to make the neighborhood bully, Martin Hastings, stop bugging him. When Edward's Uncle Josh comes with his dog Argess, Edward's dreams of having a dog start to come true. There is a big adventure at the end of the book. The ending is very exciting and I don't want to spoil it for you, so read this book!
A Real Good Book 5 out of 5 stars.

I read this book nine times. Edward becomes attached to a collie dog brought to his house when his Uncle Josh comes for a summer visit. Edward thinks about the life of his Uncle, a hobo; about the bully, who makes him cry Uncle; and about his friend, who is an Uncle. The collie helps Edward become strong and thoughtful, and be better than Martin, the bully. A follow-up book, The Bully of Barkham Street, is about Martin.
Editorial Review:
AS USUAL, THE Strega-Borgia family can’t seem to get a break. They’ve just welcomed a newborn boy into the world, but before they can give him a name, he’s snatched and replaced with a demon baby. Mrs. McLachlan is back, safe and sound—but so is Isagoth the demon, and he hasn’t forgotten what he wants from the Strega-Borgias.
The family’s got to be ready, because this will be the final battle, where the winner takes all. And they’re going to need all the help they can get. . . .
