So You Want to Be a Dog?

(4) 1-3 Martha Speaks series. Adapted by Jamie White. In these three chapter-book adaptations of teleplays from the TV series, Martha the talking dog shares ghost stories around a campfire, solves several curious capers as a dog detective, and shows her human friends what it means to be a canine. Martha's charm only lasts so long before overt lessons flatline the stories, though the character's fans will likely stay engaged. Glos. Review covers these Martha Speaks titles: Campfire Stories, Detective Dog, and So You Want to Be a Dog?.
