It was a good book. I thought the boxes would eat the dog, and I liked that the bagels guided the dog to a different home

There was a dog called Shnipp and he barked for a bagel, and he loved it so much that he barked more and more and went home with somebody else. I liked it because he got fatter and fatter and fatter. It was funny. I think people would like to read it.

Shnipp is a very pesky dog who runs away from her owners and finds a lady who gives her lots of bagels. But then she misses her family and has to find her way home.

I thought it was really funny because he had owners that had bagels and all he did (all day)was eat them.

It is sad because the dog loses his trainer but it is also funny. I would recommend this book for the ones that lost theor dogs.

My favourite character was Fotz he is a dog. I think my friend Josh would enjoy this excellent book. It was fiction.

The book was about two dogs that didn’t get on but became friends. I didn’t enjoy the story because it didn’t make me laugh.

- Tell us what you thought? I thought Shnipp and Fotz agreed a lot. - Write down your thoughts about what you have read. I thought it was a nice book. - If it was fiction, which person did you like best? shnipp because he's funny. - If it was factual, why did it interest you? because a dog kept on eating bagels. - Would you recommend it to someone else? yes.
