Synopsis :

In these three stories Buster discovers his self-worth and self-confidence and makes friends along the way. Beginning readers will relate to Buster’s fears and successes and will relish in their very own triumph of completing a chapter book.

Revue de presse: Praise for the series: "Dog and cat lovers and shy kids everywhere will happily (and successfully) read and reread these stories. --Kirkus "The dogs featured have very childlike characteristics, and  youngsters will find much to identify with."—Publishers Weekly "These stories about a puppy searching for his strengths will bring smiles of recognition to the beginning-reader set .  . . Children not quite ready for Cynthia Rylant's Henry and Mudge series appreciate the natural repetition of vocabulary and the brevity of text per page."—School Library Journal  A good choice for kids just past the easiest reader stage."—Booklist "The digest-sized format of the book is pitched toward both picture-book and beginning-reader audiences, and the lively ink-and-watercolor illustrations have a well-drawn goofiness that barks up just the right tree."—Horn Book Slinking anxiously through airy, simply drawn scenes, the pop-eyed, charcoal-colored pooch looks ready to bolt at the drop of a hat, and while he finds a measure of courage at last in the company of his outgoing canine companion, Phoebe, readers will want to give him a reassuring hug. Scoot over, Mudge."—Kirkus Reviews
