Overview

Bennie's back! He's short and hairy and lovable. He's everybody's favorite black-and-white golden retriever on basset hound legs! In BENNIE AND THE PETS, volume 2 of Conversations with Bennie, he's busy exploring the animal world. His dog friends, Annie and Brodie, keep him on his toes every day. It's good to have a big brother like Brodie, but it's scary when you realize you're surrounded mostly by border collies. Fortunately, Brodie's busy chasing his tennis balls and other toys most of the time and Bennie can keep an eye on him from afar. It's more complicated when it comes to Annie. Is she his adopted sister? His girlfriend? Does Annie love him specially? For anyone who has experienced unrequited love or ambivalence in a relationship, Bennie's right alongside trying to figure it all out! . Bennie wishes he could have his own cat and he struggles with how to relate to the neighborhood squirrels who are trying to steal his acorns. He inquires into his family's prior history with dogs and considers adopting the late Sassy's mantra of peace, love, and dogfood. He has questions for his pet guardian about North Dakota, Irish wolfhounds, foster dogs, and dog diseases. He learns what he has in common with buffalo and that not all dogs are black-and-white. BENNIE AND THE PETS is a great read at any age. Don't miss the reviews at the beginning, too, where Bennie's friends check out his book and let everyone know what to expect!
