MY THOUGHTS – LOVED IT
This is an adorable book that follows Mister Spunky in his red sports car on a trip to the beach where he encounters several puppies in distress.  He stops for a sad dog who is crying because she is bullied. Another three stops pick up a blind dog, an unloved dog and an angry dog.  Each of them helped by friendship. The pictures are nicely done and can create whole stories on their own.  This would be an excellent first reader to get kids familiar with empathy.  
About Kelly Preston
Kelly Preston is, first and foremost, an animal lover. Raised on a ten-acre property in a small town in Pennsylvania, she grew up with horses, rabbits, and – of course – dogs. When she left home after college, she acquired Gizmo, an irresistible Lhasa Apso that started her on a journey full of joys and sorrows, hopes and tribulations, frustrations, endless lessons in patience, and above all else, love. All of this has come at the hands (more precisely the paws) of Gizmo, Betty Boop, Buffy, Carla Mae, and the inimitable Mr. MaGoo.
