I received this book as a gift for my classroom this fall. What you need to know about this book is P. S. stands for Pooper Scoopers. Shawn and Russell want a dog of their own and start their own poop scooping business to earn the $200 they need for a Rottweiler puppy. Then they discover a potential crime.
Animal violence makes me cringe, but I liked how the situation was resolved and feel comfortable recommending this to my students.
I love Maribeth Boelts! I am currently working on a unit to go with Those Shoes. I love her realistic approach. I need to go and check this book out. Thanks for the great recommendation!
