PEKE, AN ADORABLE little Pekingnese, has a boo-boo. But when he uses his imagination, he’s no longer a pup with a broken leg, he’s a pirate with a peg leg on the high seas! Can he find the buried treasure? In her picture book debut, Brie Spangler celebrates the power of imagination and introduces a lovable Pekingnese puppy who refuses to let his boo-boo keep him from having fun.

Reader reviewed by Julie M. Prince

This is a simple and fun story, designed especially for little ones who can relate to a broken leg.

Okay, so it may not be targeted at ONLY that audience, but it will be a hit with that particular group of kids--the ones who have a boo boo that's getting them down.

Using the imagination to transcend tough times isn't a new concept, but it's rare to find it drawn out in a way that even the littlest readers will grasp.

Simple text. Simple illustrations. Simply just right.
