Mimi loves helping out at the Pretty Poodle parlour, so when Madame Shampoodle leaves her niece, Florence, and Mimi in charge for the day, the girls can’t wait to have the salon all to themselves.
But with demanding customers like the Wriggly pups and Truffle Truelove to deal with, can they make everyone happy without having any hair scares or doggy disasters?

'Florence accidentally dyed someone's whole body blue and she felt bad but she was the style of the month'

I liked mimi the best because she likes to make everyone happy by giving them the hairstyle that they wanted.

I think it was really good, I liked the end where they made a mistake and they made the dog blue but it ended up as the style of the month. I would recommend if you like dogs

I thought it was a fiction book. If it was a fiction book I would like Florence because she dyed Truffle Truelove blue. I would recommend this book to my friend because she might know what colour blue turned into.

This book was a bit too easy to read. It's a book with a moral so it teaches you a lesson. The lesson of this book is if you make mistakes they can actually sometimes be really helpful.

I thought it was a creative book. It was about a dog called Mimi who loved to make everyone happy every day she helps Madame Shampoodle at the Pretty Poodle parlour.AndMimi tries her hardest to help in the Pretty Poodle parlour and she always knows what the customers want . And Madame Shampoodle thinks Mimi dose a great job helping! One morning Madame Shampoodle was looking in a magazine. She was trying to find a amazing new display for the window but she didn’t know what to choose. Mimi thought of some ideas but they weren’t good either. She said it had to be something that everyone will notice then Madame’s niece came into the salon she was going to help her name was Florence. Mimi and Florence made friends. Then they opened up. Madame Shampoodle did a lot of work! Suddenly a mysterious dog walked in he said Gloria Greyhound wants you to design her coat she said yes and Mimi and Florence took over. a dog walked in saying I need a different colour ok I’ll do it said Mimi then another dog walked in he wanted his pups nails trimmed Florence tried to do that but they didn’t stay still so Mimi came in and sang a song you do the colour then Florence ok she said but Florence did the wrong colour blue not pink she started crying and everyone felt bad but Mimi said that can be the style of the month yes it can be called truffle blue when Madame came back she saw in the window a new look that’s amazing she said Gloria Greyhound said it was amazing to.Then they had a big hug.I liked Mimi the best because I like to make everyone happy to . Yes I would recommend this to people who like poodles and dogs.
