Summary: Nick's review
Review: My name is Nick and I am 12 years old. "The Poky Little Puppy Follow's His Nose Home" is about a group of five puppies who want to go on an adventure. Their mom tells them they can go , but she also tells them to stay away from cars and they must be home by dinner time. Eventually they find cars in the city and they have to leave, but they get lost while they are in the city. So the poky little puppy uses his very good puppy nose and eventually returns from home. I liked this book because it is an adventure that little kids can enjoy. I would recommend this book for kids that are 4 or 5 years old.

Summary: Addresses an important issue
Review: This was the first children's book to write honestly about the issue of pokyness. The subject is introduced in a gentle manner so as not to unduly embarrass a young listener who is struggling with pokyness. As someone else put it, "the puppy is the child who has failed to progress beyond the mirror-stage, surely." I couldn't agree more, or recommend this more highly for any parents with poky children.
