Snowball Student Review by Diana
Snowball by Ellen Miles (part of the Puppy Place series)
This book is about a puppy that has no home. The family is the Peterson’s and they have a foster home for dogs and puppies. Mr. Peterson has a friend that works at a gas station. One day, Mr. Peterson got a call from his friend while the kids were at school. When the children were walking home, their dad was so excited and happy. When they were driving he said that his friend found a puppy at the gas station. When they arrived, they found a white Westie puppy that was about 4 months old. They name him Snowball. Will Snowball be a trouble maker or will he be good? What will all the puppies futures hold?
So far I like this book because it is about dogs and puppies and I like dogs and puppies. This book is interesting because there are happy and sad parts. I hope you will read it!

I love to read legal thrillers and when I saw that John Grisham had written ,Theo Boone: Kid Lawyer I bought the book immediately. I spent countless hours as a kid immersed in the pages of Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. Their books are pretty dated for today’s kids and nothing has stepped up More >

Dear Mrs Hembree,
This is a great website and some great books too. I have started to read snowball it sounds like a good story to me so far. Have you heard of the book snowball? I have not. This is what I read. There was a puppy that had no home. There is this family that works at a shop, the family was the Petersons and they have a foster home for dogs and puppies. Mr Peterson has a friend that works at the gas station. Has anybody got the book Snowball?
