This book is uniquely written from the pup's point of view. Getting inside the dog's head helps kids understand why their puppy does what he does so they can lovingly cope with each situation. Puppy Scents not only allows children to help out in training their new puppy but to also learn responsibility and gain confidence as loving caregivers. Additionally, parents and teachers will find this book useful as a way to encourage positive behaviour in children, as each chapter has a lesson not only for the little pup, Roc, but correlating life lessons for children as well. Seeing that Roc can successfully learn to overcome obstacles shows children that they can too. The author's is that both you and your children enjoy the little pup's story and come away feeling delighted and eager to train, love, and bond with your new puppy. Training is a family thing. Enjoy!
