Ready or Not, Here Comes Scout!

Scout, the lovable puppy of “Puppy Diaries” fame, stars in her own picture book Poor Scout. She wants so much to make friends with the other dogs at the dog park. She tries all her best puppy tricks–splashing, playing keepaway–but the older dogs ignore her. At the end of the day, she still has only one friend: her favorite toy, Baby. But Scout is determined to win over the other dogs, and she will, even if she does it in her own special, goofy way. Sisters Jill Abramson and Jane O’Connor have collaborated on this warm and funny picture book based on Jill’s popular “New York Times” blog and book, “Puppy Diaries,” and told in Scout’s charmingly clueless voice.
