A New Barker in the House

(3) K-3 In this second book about the Barkers, twin dogs Morgie and Moffie welcome their adopted brother, Marcos, but it takes time to adjust to one another. DePaola's illustrations are sunny and expressive; full-page pictures combine with panels to move the action along swiftly. Simple Spanish words are nicely integrated into the story as the Barkers learn to communicate with their new brother. Glos.
