Mum is teaching her puppies how to be helpful and they are learning how to share, practise good manners, how to be tidy and more. This book follows the story of the dog family as the puppies grow, but it provides lots of advice on behaviour for its human readers. For children progressing through book bands, the book is suitable for children reading at book band 7: Turquoise.
The Healthy Habits series for children aged 4 plus, features key information about how to stay healthy in mind and body, simply told and brought to life through a relatable animal guide alongside bright and gently humorous illustrations. The books have lots of good advice for human children and a little bit of learning about the animal world, to keep things interesting for young animal lovers.
