In this book, there is a little puppy that is very curious. Throughout the book it shows all the things that the little puppy gets into and ends up having to go to bed without strawberry shortcake.

#7days7books 7 books that made a deep impression or changed me.

Book 1 is the first book that I can remember. My mom read this to me over and over when I was a baby, and I had her keep reading to me almost every day when I was a little guy, even though I had it memorized long before I could ever read. The Pokey Little Puppy helped make me a book lover from infancy.

Thanks for the tag @sprainedbrain ! I went back to the beginning on this one.

?? Little One Book Review of "The Poky Little Puppy" by Janette Sebring Lowrey, illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren (Little Golden Book)

Read together (with Mimi) November 14, 2019

Rating: 4/5 ⭐️

Book #7 in our "1,000 Books Before Kindergarten" challenge

Review is continued in the comments section ⬇️

bibliobliss Mommy and I received a special treat last week when my grandma (affectionately known as "Mimi") read to us. She didn't read just ANY book, either; she read one of Mommy's favorite books from childhood: "The Poky Little Puppy" by Janette Sebring Lowrey, illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren. (Mommy admits that she never knew the author and illustrator by name and she also had no idea this book has been around since 1942!!) 5y
bibliobliss It was a special book for Mimi to read because it holds an equally special place in Mommy's heart. Mimi read from the original copy Mommy had when she was a little girl -- and we all noticed how worn and deeply loved the book was. There were even scribbles in the back of the book where Mommy made her mark, probably trying to "write" her name there. Generational memories are certainly being made... 5y
bibliobliss As for the book itself, we liked it, although the language proved that it was considerably outdated. (1942, remember!) For example, we don't use words like "roly poly" or "pell-mell" anymore (although they are funny, repetitive words that work well with the story of puppies rolling down hills and digging into gardens.) 5y
See All 10 Comments
bibliobliss Of course, this story is about one poky little puppy who, while he's good at playing, refuses to "play" by the rules. This book reminded me of Marley the dog, because both puppies are known for being mischievous. So mischievous, in fact, that this one little poky puppy is about to miss out on some delicious dessert if he doesn't STOP digging in the dirt. (Spoiler alert: he doesn't stop digging in the dirt). 5y
bibliobliss The story kept my attention pretty well; like the narrator, I desperately needed to know where that poky little puppy was from page to page; he wouldn't stay still! The illustrations were incredibly vintage but they fit the story well. 5y
bibliobliss Mommy honestly didn‘t remember much about this book plot-wise (not that it has a complicated plot, folks, because it certainly doesn't) but she recalled the illustrations. She also recalled that her love of books and reading started with this particular book from childhood. For this reason and others, she wanted it to be one of the first books I read. Now we can check it off the list -- but we will surely revisit it once I'm older. 5y
bibliobliss What's your favorite children's book? Are your childhood memories wrapped up in your childhood reading experiences? As readers, that's often where our memories and experiences come together: right between the pages of a good book! 5y
TiredLibrarian @Readage I remember loving the rhymes and creatures in this one. Read it over and over with my mother before bed; must have driven her crazy! 5y
bibliobliss @TiredLibrarian I'll be sure to add this one to the TBR; we like Dr. Seuss. Thanks for your response 😉📚 5y

• I can't believe this story is from 1942!! It's a childhood favorite and still part of my Little Golden Book collection. Tonight, Logan's Mimi read it to him and we'll be reviewing it for the blog soon. Memories are being made!! (For me, I think, good memories will always be associated with good books!!) ♥️🐶 •

“But the poky little puppy cam home after everyone else was sound asleep, and he ate up all the chocolate custard and crawled into bed happy as a lark.“

The Poky Little Puppy | Janette Sebring Lowrey

I would like to read this book to my class whenever they are having a hard time behaving and kind of teach them that if they aren't doing what they're asked, certain opportunities can be taken away.

blurb

The Poky Little Puppy | Janette Sebring Lowrey

I like this book, but it's kind of lengthy so depending on the audience, you may not keep their attention for very long. However, it is about puppies and children tend to really like them. It also kind of teaches a lesson on behaving and such since the mom of the puppies is displeased that they've been digging under the fence and denies them dessert.

This book would be good for kindergarteners and 1st graders. Its a small book for kids starting to read. The storyline about a puppy is a great way to introduce animals into the classroom.

This book is a picture book. It‘s a great story for kids because of the puppy‘s. The book has great pictures. Each picture shows the personality of the puppy. Great illustrations for kids. It is a fun story for students because the puppies are being playful.

On this date in 1942, Little Golden Books launched, "democratizing reading for young Americans". At this time, children's books were between $2-3 (a luxury for many families), whereas these books cost 25 cents each. Over time it wasn't just affordability, but lovable characters, memorable illustrations, and valuable lessons that kindled the joy of reading in many of us.

Suet624 What a sweet shirt. My granddaughter examines that picture every day. It‘s on the back of the books, as you know. It would be fun to wear the shirt to surprise her but I don‘t think I‘d wear it more than once or twice. It looks great on you, but I don‘t think it would look that great on me. 😂😂 (edited) 6y
readordierachel Adorable! 6y
britt_brooke @Suet624 Aw, what a little sweetie pie!! 🤫 You would look amazing! Just keep in mind if you do order one, the women‘s sizes run really small. This is a large and I wish I‘d gotten an XL. Out of Print has these in unisex tees and sweatshirts, too. 6y
Palimpsest @Suet624 the golden book T-shirt from @outofprint is available in toddler/ kids sizes as well. They also carry The Shy Little Kitten and The Pokey Little Puppy as well as other darling titles for babies and toddlers if you‘re interested for your granddaughter. They also have this design in a tote bag. 6y
Palimpsest @britt_brooke great shirt! I got a new one for my birthday last week, but it‘s Frankenstein. 😊love their products so much. My all time favorite is my Hamlet sweatshirt because it‘s so soft. 6y
britt_brooke @Palimpsest You‘re awesome - thanks for this info for @Suet624 ! I didn‘t realize there was so much more. 💚 I many need to get my 5 year old the Poky Little Puppy Shirt! 6y
britt_brooke @Palimpsest Thanks! I have a Frankenstein one, too! 💚 Lately, my wardrobe is has become mostly bookish trees (and yoga pants). 😆 I‘m not sad about it either. 6y
Palimpsest @britt_brooke 😊I think I‘m addicted to bookish t-shirts (comfy pants too!) Especially great when they have their buy one get one sale! I have gotten a couple of shirts for my three-year-old and while I know they recently changed clothing sizes for kids I felt the kids shirts ran a bit small/ short-waisted, but my son is a tall for his age too. 6y
britt_brooke @Palimpsest That‘s good to know about the kids‘ shirts. Do you know if the kids‘ sizing is accurate now? My 5 year old is big for his age as well. I‘ve also found the women‘s cuts always run really small. I have to go up a size and truly should probably go up 2 sizes to feel more comfortable. 😬 6y
Suet624 @Palimpsest @britt_brooke thanks so much! That‘s a great idea. I‘ll check it out. 6y
Palimpsest @britt_brooke I think the sizes are better now. Choices for kids are 2, 4, 6. I got my three year old the four and it fits. I too size up in the shirts from my normal size. 6y

Next up in my series of books that have left an impression on me #LizsLibraryLoves is the Little Golden Books. I loved these as a kid, they were cheap so we could afford them, and they were bright, interesting & easy to read for 4year old me. My sister used to read to me at night until she stopped, so I picked up Scuffy The Tugboat & started reading it myself. My faves were Poky Little Puppy, Tootle & Scuffy because I dreamed of floating away.

Zelma Scuffy the Tugboat and Hiram's Red Shirt were my absolute favorites!!! ❤️ 8y

It's #NationalPuppyDay and it's so close to Daisy's Adoptaversary! Here's a gem from when she was a sweet lil pup :') She's chewed up countless phone chargers but never a book! What a good girl!!
