Martha and Skits

by Susan Meddaugh

Martha and Skits Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Marthas family has a little surprise for her — a puppy. Marthas world is turned topsy-turvy as she attempts to adjust to Skits, the exuberant, unabashed addition to the household.

After the initial chaos, all seems to be going along quite smoothly until Skits does the unforgivable — crashes into Marthas bowl of alphabet soup, spilling it everywhere. Martha decides she can no longer just watch from the safety of her chair. She must take charge and lay down the law for the pup. But

when the family insists that Skits be more like Martha, something terrible happens! Its up to Martha to help Skits realize just how special he is.
