Pinkerton, Behave! | Steven Kellogg
post image
Pickpick

4 ⭐ This book is an oldie but a goodie. Pinkerton is a Great Dane, who has a lot of trouble learning their commands. So much so they flunk out of obeisance school. However, when the house is invaded by a burglar Pinkerton will save the day, even if the family has to use the “wrong” commands to get the “right” answer.

LibrarianRyan This book has been banned, but also “fixed” by the author to take out references of guns after Sandy Hook. It was the author that approached the publisher about the new edition for its 30th anniversary.

Charlie Howard is a crime writer with a side gig as a thief.

Fun idea spoiled by poor ebook formatting (random hyphenation presumably carried over from where necessary in the print edition) and bad editing (many homophone mistakes). This doesn't convince me that I need to add it to the many series I've got on the go.

THIS BOOK. This book and the other six in this series are my exact pot of tea. A smart and incredibly funny thief with a moral compass keeps getting himself out of the wildest situations. Wonderful, funny mysteries. Junior Bender is like who Archie Goodwin would be in today‘s world. 12/10. LOOOOOOVE these books.

#Spooktober Day10 #Witches @Eggs

When I was little my dad gifted me a year subscription of picture books - delivered via mail once a month. It was the best thing ever and I still have 8 of them. So this 1966 edition of an old witch is a treasure!

Eggs Oh sweet!! 5y
marleed @Eggs 3 of the 8 are October themed so maybe I can sneak the other two in photo challenges this month! 5y
plemmdog I think I have that same one, somewhere. My mom also ordered the book club for me. I still have them all! I think my favorite was The King With Six Friends. 5y
marleed @plemmdog oh my gosh that‘s so cool! I was so enamored with my book mail that the next year my dad challenged me with some monthly geography book where the pictures were these stickers that I had to lick the back side and put in their proper place. I secretly wanted the picture books to continue! ... I didn‘t save those geography books! 5y
Alora This is so cool and such a keepsake! Love it 5y
