My Thoughts

Bentley the dog is back - and it's his birthday! However, he is worried that his friends have forgotten his birthday. He goes out to search the park and sees if he can find them. When he is at the pack, he meets a new friend - who does not know the other animals. While he is hanging out with his new friend he is distracted about feeling like his friends forgot his birthday. In reality, they are trying to throw him a party. 

I read this book with my 8 and 10 year old sons. It was fun to read, the pictures are colorful and fit the story well. We just love Bentley. This book is geared toward 3-7 year olds. I received a copy of this book through Iread Book Tours, all thoughts are my own.
