Caddie, the Golf Dog

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Floyd Cooper. During a terrible storm, a stray dog that Jennifer took in runs away. The next day, the dog is found on a golf course by two brothers, who name her Caddie. After Caddie gives birth, the boys' father advertises in the newspaper for homes for the puppies, and Jennifer responds. The writing is flat and full of clichés, but the story works, and the soft mixed-media illustrations complement its mood.
