With his big blue eyes and soulful expression, George was the irresistible runt of the litter. But Dave and Christie Nasser's "baby" ended up being almost five feet tall, seven feet long, and 245 pounds. Eager to play, and boisterous to the point of causing chaos, this big Great Dane was scared of water, scared of dogs a fraction of his size, and, most of all, scared of being alone. Giant George is the charming story of how this precocious puppy won Dave and Christie's hearts and along the way became a doggie superstar.

Before they were the Boxcar Children, Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden lived with their parents on Fair Meadow Farm. Although times are hard, the Aldens are happy - “the best family of all,” Mama likes to say. One day, a blizzard hits the countryside, and a traveling family needs shelter. The Aldens take them in, and the strangers soon become friends. But things never stay the same at the farm, and the spring and summer bring events that will forever change their lives.

Julie Klam was 30, single, and working as a part-time clerk in an insurance company, wondering if she would ever meet the man she could spend the rest of her life with. And then it happened.

As the youngest in her family, Dory really wants attention; and more than anything, she wants her brother and sister to play with her. But she's too much of a baby for them, so she's left to her own devices - including her wild imagination and untiring energy. Her siblings may roll their eyes at her childish games, but Dory has lots of things to do: outsmarting the monsters all over the house, escaping from prison (aka time-out), and exacting revenge on her sister's favorite doll.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 60
In 2006, Kate MacDougall was working a safe but dull job at the venerable auction house Sotheby’s in London. After a clumsy accident nearly destroyed a precious piece of art, she quit Sotheby’s and set up her own dog-walking company. Kate knew little about dogs and nothing about business, and no one thought being a professional dog walker was a good use of her university degree. Nevertheless, Kate embarked upon an entirely new and very much improvised career walking some of the city’s many pampered pooches, branding her company "London's Number One Dog Walking Agency".

This is, sadly, not like the others
My son and I love the Bobs and Tweets books. We've bought and read them all and the drawings are so charming. We decided to get the audio books for the other two and that was our bedtime story. We loved those too. Then when I saw this one we were excited to get it and we did. To our surprise, the format changed and instead of reading the story, they decided to get different actors to read different parts and then, for whatever reason, decided to add a song about the dog at the end of each chapter. A different song, in a different style, after each and every chapter - and these aren't particularly good songs either. Their presence breaks up the story reading by halting the flow of the narrative for 2-3 minutes to hear some song, and then the next chapter comes. We could not use this now for our night time routine as it is jarring and not really, then, an audiobook. The lyrics aren't part of the poetry of the book. They are extra material and do not flow with the story much. This is a disappointing production therefore. I wish they would redo this (and also do the other 2 books in the original format so the whole collection has the same flow).
