The Poky Little Puppy

Continuing on with our top 10 list of favorite children's books, we have The Poky Little Puppy - A Little Golden Book coming in at #9. This is a classic children's book and a must-have for reading to your little ones or grandchildren.

Someone once described this book as a way of introducing "pokyness" to children in a way that didn't embarrass them. Let's face it, all children can be a little poky, especially when it comes to learning responsibility, like cleaning their room or getting ready to go somewhere. These were lessons I didn't really learn as a child, in fact, my wife still thinks I'm a little poky to this day. Maybe my parents should have read this to me when I was a little boy.

The puppies are great characters and are easily identifiable with children. They capture and then hold their interest as they go on their daily adventures. They are sweet and safe characters for your children.

This story is simple and quickly developed. These Little Golden Books are a real treasure and can be found on Amazon or any book retailer. Heck, you might even find them in a garage sale in your neighborhood. If you find one, then you must get it.

These books written from a bygone era have wonderful lessons and appeal to children even today. This is the perfect kind of story we here at Timothy House would love to have published, had we been in business back then. So get your copy today and enjoy the Poky Little Puppy.
