I liked looking at all the names of Sausage’s friends and did you know that Sausage’s best friend is called Lola. I used to have a nanny when I lived in London and her daughter was called Lola.

I think this book is OK because there is a dog called sausage and its his birthday today but nobody has remembered so he is sad. So he went out and was running about very sad that the others were planning a surprise for him. The kids were sending out invitations and making a cake for him and then when sausage can back he was full of joy caused everyone brought him a lot of gifts.

I enjoyed this book, it was about a sausage dog and the family that was looking after the dog. There were parts that were not very nice as he was making fun of the dog.

I chose this book because I like sausage dogs. The story is about two cats called Fitz Spatz who live with sausage dog. It is sausage dogs birthday and they want to ruin his party. They try to put all the invitations in the bin. Fittz and Spatz make sausage dog very sad. Despite their best efforts to ruin sausages birthday cake and party, sausage and his friends have a fantastic time. I really enjoed the book and would read it again.
