McDuff Moves In by Rosemary Wells and Susan J Jeffers

Book Review

Blurb

The little dog nobody wanted finds a loving home with Fred and Lucy - and all the vanilla rice pudding he can eat.

Review

This is such a sweet book. Poor little McDuff falls out of the dog pound van in search of a new home. We follow his little adventure to Fred and Lucy's house where they take him in. 

There is a lovely message here about rescuing dogs and showing how the personality of such a little animal can have an immediate effect on a family.

I particularly loved that it was set in the 1930s with delightful illustrations, with a little nod to detail such as the Clarice Cliff teapot on the table. 

A very warm and cosy book that I would love to read to a little one with them sat on my lap. There is added information about rescuing dogs in the back plus a recipe for vanilla rice pudding. Such a beautiful touch.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Happy reading,
