Ginger Pye

Im listening to the audio version of this book and I think it's making it even worse than it is. This is a very dull book and not full of any diverse characters. You will need a lot of caffeine to get through it and I can't imagine kids liking it. The story gets off topic and is full of stereotypes of all kinds. How this book ever got an award is beyond my comprehension.

This is a wonderful book about a very intelligent dog named ginger! One day,he is stolen by a man in a yellow hat! I think this is a great book if you like Dogs,Mysteries and Action filled books! This book i would recomend to 4th and 5th graders!

Ginger Pye is a beautiful, well-written, heart-warming story. I loved this book, mostly the middle and end. I guess you could say that the beginning was sort-of slow, but it was okay. I was blown away by imaginative, clever ideas from Eleanor Estes!

Uhhh, puh-lease. Okay, maybe a little kid who was like, 3 would like it, but older kids will find themselves snoring away. I had to read this book for school. It is about two unintelligent little kids who get a dog. They lose the dog. They are sad. They can't figure out who took the dog. The dog comes back. Whoop-dee-doo. End. Ya see? I could have written this book better. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BOOK!! EVER!!!
