What the Readers Say

"Houdini’s Escape will be well-received by dog lovers. Susan Hughes delivers a charming story about friendships and mischief-making puppies. She weaves in some interesting facts about dogs (brachycephalic) and some training tips (house training, and command teaching), but she does not overdo this aspect of the book. She even includes facts about the magician Houdini through some of the characters’ dialogue. The illustrations by Leanne Franson are excellent and enhance the reader’s experience with Houdini and the girls. The target audience of kids who adore puppies will find this book interesting and fun."
