When Stacy buys a little ball of burnt colored fur from the pet store, she never knew her new pack mate would change her life for the better. There was never a dull moment with him around. I have mixed feelings about this book. The story was nice and the characters were likeable and believable. Unfortunately, the book itself was poorly written. I am no genius when it comes to grammar, but there were several mistakes that even my 15 year old noticed. This detracted from the overall enjoyment of the book. It was a good story, but it is in major need of a good editor and more detail. There were several spots where the same word or phrase was used more, then three times in a single paragraph. That said, if you like little books about cute animals or can’t get enough of the Shih Tzu breed then this is a decent story from the perspective of one.

I received this book as an early review copy for my honest review and I have given it. The opinions expressed herein are my own.

MY PACK BURNEY THE HOLLYWOOD PUPPY by Walter F. Todd is a Fiction/Action & Adventure for Young readers. This is the story of the adventures of Burney, a shih tzu puppy born in Minnesota, sold to a Beverly Hills pet store who now lives in Hollywood. Burney is a very adventurous pup, he finds a gruesome discovery in Griffith Park, helps the local police solve a murder, meets actors, robbers and oh yeah, he has a part in a movie. Oh, but a little old monkey frightens him at an audition. You will laugh out loud at the adventures and mis-adventures Burney has in his three months of life. I see a sequel in his future. Well written with the most engaging characters and what an interesting storyline. Any young reader is sure to enjoy Burney and his Pack. A great read! Received for an honest review from the author.
