      The story of Noodle brought to you by the creator of Ferdinand and the creator of Madeline What could be better than a dog story by these two Worthy of any child s collection, and a fine learning moral to be found within.

      What a cute little book though I think that if Noodle had any sense, he d think about correcting the problems that plague him You know, like being a little taller or a little shorter, instead of thinking only of zoo animals Noodle isn t that smart But he learns to be happy with what he has, and that s a decent message since, you know, fairy dogmothers aren t real and you kinda have to accept your height.

      Oh I wish I could say I liked this book without any hesitation and give it at least three stars, but I can t It was cute, and I m all for self acceptance morals, but this was lacking just a smidge I would have really liked to see two pages to show why Noodle decided his size worked for him rather than implying that because other animals are suited for their shapes, he must be too Leaf just doesn t bridge that gap with his story.

      A classic I remember fondly from my childhood Wordy by today s picture book standards, but then it was originally published in 1937 The conclusion comes about a bit too rapidly, without showing Noodle s thought process that leads to his decision Theme is self acceptance.

      Noodle is a dachshund who thinks he would like to be taller so that he can dig better bones But in the end he decides to stay just as he is Lesson of being comfortable in your own skin Saw this book at the ny museum on bemelman Artwork is simplistic.
