Book Description
Owners of beloved dogs will universally agree that, sometimes, it seems their pet understands everything that is being said around them. In this fantasy, Chipper provides some answers to the question: What adventures might a dog have if he could actually read words and understand what is being said by those nearby? Sit down and shake a paw with this special canine as he grows from a clumsy pup to a crime-stopping member of the local police force. Along the way, he learns to read. He is dog-napped, injured and almost euthanized. He becomes a dog who counsels other dogs...and he uses a special computer to tell the story of his adventures. Join Mary Anne and Chipper, together with their good friend Monty and his dog, Maggie, as they create a training school for dogs - The Learning Lab - whose results amaze and mystify the owners of the dogs in attendance. But these undertakings can't even compare with the superlative life-lessons Mary Anne and Chipper learn from Mom and Dad and Mr. Robb, their wise and kindly neighbor. This quirky canine is sure to find his way into your heart. He may not be able to speak, but Chipper's waggy-tailed escapades will keep you wondering, "...and what else can this dog do?"...
