Another good book in the series.
The feel was different to some of the other books in the series. It also was more serious than some of them at times. Having more than one main human character was something different for the series too.
It was less emotional than some of the other books in the series. It wasn't the best of the series in my view but it is still a book to recommend to new readers.

One knows going into a book like this that it is not going to be a deep read. For the type of story, this one was great. It was nice that there were two different characters that came together. It made this story seem more unique than some of the others. Though it was quite predictable, it was exciting to read, for both my daughter and myself.

I thought the part where the book explains the girl's feelings was really sad.
This book is about a girl who just got a new puppy. She names him Max. One day, while the girl was at school, Max found a butterfly in the house and barked at it. The girl's mom opens the window and lets it out. Max misses the girl so much that he sees the open window and goes outside. He searches for her and walks around for a while.
A car comes by the road and hits Max.
In the other story, this girl named Jasmine is ready to hit the beach! When her family gets to the beach, they start walking around and finds Max with bloody leg. She picks him up and takes him to the vet.
You will have to read the story to find out if the other girl finds him, and if Max will be okay.

I thought that this book was awesome. Jasmine was a little rude, espicially when she said that she wished she had turned the other way but then again she had fallen in love with Max/Lucky and now Max/Lucky had to go. I understand how she would feel. However, it was obvious that (at the end) she really, really, really wanted to keep Max's/Lucky's brother. He was just too funny to keep ignoring. My faviroute charcters are Max and Molly because they both obviously loved each other so much. Max never ever forgot Molly and still wanted to search for her whilst Molly continuedmsearching for Max even though she had almost lost hope. I reccoemdn this book to everyone as it is awesome and amazing.

October 15, 2023I have encountered very first book of Holly Web. It's best for learning children's emotional attachment with their pets 🐕 and how do they feel about what the pet would be feeling. That's a good book. The story tells that there was a girl having a new pet very first time in her life named Max. A lovely puppy 🐶.She became so much attached with in few days, not only because of her inclination but also for Max's living attitude. Then it got missing by mistake when girl is out for school. Max finds it too much difficult to back home. A very nice family treats him for his wounds in hospital. When Max gets well family takes him to sea- shore as a pet of their own daughter. By chance at the same time original owner was also looking for Max on same spot. Thus he is back to his home.
Confusing behavior of both little girl and Max the puppy had been explained as good and as simple but touching way that it is made this story a must read for children.

Molly is so happy when her mom and dad let her get a puppy. She takes home Max, a old English sheepdog puppy. Max hates it when Molly goes to school, so one day, he decides to follow her. But soon, Max ends with a hurt leg and in terrible danger. Mine while, Molly is upset and worried. Will they ever be reunited? I love this tale about a lost dog his owner. Max is cute and Molly is a nice girl. I love every last one of Holly Webb’s books.😍

Sweet stories for the young and older people to enjoy. Max gets out of his house and manages to become lost. He is just a little puppy and wants nothing more to get back to his owner, Molly.

The kids loved this one (I think they pretty much love any book with animals). It was a perfect read aloud for 3rd graders.
