An adorable short story about Jingles the dog.

"Jingles All the Way" was an adorable short story about a headstrong dog who, after running away from his unsavory pet parents saw his picture hanging up. He then follows his nose straight to a gourmet dog food chef who treats him with loving kindness.

I thought this was a super cute children's story and a good message. A fun book written by Barbara Morgenroth.

Jane M. Held was great. Her narration was perfect with this book mostly being from Jingle's point of view. I always knew who was talking. Great accents as well. A solid performance.

Well written story by Barbara Morgenroth

A-dog-able

This book is a true pleasure. While it has a Christmas title, it would be a great book any time of the year and not only for those 8-10 years of age.

It takes place from the dog's point of view, a dog who understands most of the English language. Made me suspect that my cats know more than the 25-35 words experts say they understand.

Barbara Morgenroth's writing was purr-fect.... ummmm.... woof-fect.

Jane M. Held vocals were fabulous and not only for the voice of the dog but also to the humans that intersected his path. Her inflections were spot on.
