80 years ago this was my favorite book. I memorized it so that my mother though I had learned to read. It's still good for kids today. Both my son and granddaughter like it. The message is that the Poky little puppy gets rewarded for being curious, not punished for being the last one home. Also all the puppies are naughty.
