Routine meets a lively new companion

Doggo’s orderly household changes when Pupper arrives, bringing mess and playfulness with him. After puppy school makes Pupper well-behaved but unhappy, Doggo steps in—and finds that helping his new companion also rekindles his own enjoyment of fun. The chapter-book setup gives friendship a practical shape: welcoming someone different, noticing when they are unhappy, and making room for play. Illustrations by Charlie Alder accompany this story of an older dog and a puppy learning how to live together.

Book overview

An old dog has to welcome a new puppy to the household, in this chapter book -- perfect for sharing with fans of Frog and Toad--by beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Katherine Applegate.

Doggo is used to things being a certain way in his family. He likes routine. Cat says he's become boring. That is, until Pupper shows up!

Pupper is playful and messy, and turns the house upside down. Soon, the humans realize that Pupper needs some training, and off he goes to puppy school.

When Pupper comes back, he's well-behaved. He's not playful. He's not messy. But Doggo soon realizes that Pupper also isn't happy. So Doggo steps in to help, and rediscovers what it means to have fun.

Doggo and Pupper launches a delightful new series by beloved author Katherine Applegate, featuring illustrations by Charlie Alder.
