Construction pups / Margret and H. A. Rey.

Rey, Margret, (author.). Rey, H. A. (Hans Augusto), 1898-1977 (author.).

Summary:

Based on the streaming series Pretzel and the Puppies on Apple TV+, this I Can Read follows the pups as they work to make sure the new Bow Wow Tower is accessible for all dogs. Welcome to Muttgomery, the nicest little city in an all-dog world, and home of Pretzel, Greta, and their five adorable Dachshund puppies: Poppy, Penny, Pedro, Puck, and Paxton. Pretzel is a peppy, playful, and always positive stay-at-home dad, and he and Greta, the mayor of Muttgomery, have a knack for encouraging their pups to follow their passions and make the world a better place! In this I Can Read book, the pups are excited to explore the newly built Bow-Wow Tower--it has binoculars so dogs can see all of Muttgomery! But the construction dogs didn't plan for pups who are too small to reach the binoculars. Luckily the Doxies are there to put their paws up and make the tower accessible to all!

Pretzel and the Puppies: Construction Pups

School Library Journal

K-Gr 2--This story serves as a simple introduction to the many adventures Dachshund Pretzel and his puppies will have in their new Apple+ show. When the puppies notice that the smaller dogs are too short to see out of the town's new observation tower, they step up and find a solution. The puppies decide to build step stools and all work together to create a design, gather materials, and put the stools together. Overall, the plot serves as a solid reminder of how to handle tools safely and to use them under adult supervision. Tools like the drill and the saw aren't used by the pups at all, though they do get the chance to observe. More importantly, their focus on teamwork and helping seems to ground the book and this series in general. Word choice is fine for a transitional title, though younger readers will need help with the more difficult words, such as binoculars. VERDICT An additional purchase wherever the TV series is popular.--Peter Blenski
