James and Mandy’s neighborhood won the holiday lights Best Block contest, and all the neighbors are getting ready to put on a big show. Everyone has a job and a role to play in order for the night to be a success. Rosco’s job is to behave and not mess up anything! Rosco wants to be good, but he doesn’t understand what all is going on and when he spies some suspicious behavior, well, a good German Shepherd must investigate. Will Rosco be a hero, or will his investigation wreak havoc and cause a holiday disaster?
Told from the point-of-view of Rosco, readers will see the world through the eyes of a very good dog, who tries his best to protect his family, yet still gets into mischief. Though there are five books in the Rosco the Rascal series, there is no need to read them in any specific order. This adorable book is perfect for the holiday season. Families will chuckle out loud as they follow Rosco’s “helpful” antics. There are several sections in the back to help younger readers advanced their knowledge, from dog breeds to holiday spelling lists.
Having grown up with dogs, including the best German Shepherd a girl could ask for, it was wonderful reading a book through the dog’s eyes. Children will adore this cute story.
