MY THOUGHTS -
WOW!
I absolutely loved these books! They are all centered around this large white dog named Jo. Each story adds a new character, a puppy, a cat, a young girl. And each story has something to teach, a lesson to learn. What a great teaching tool.
The first one - Ginormous Joe’s Broken Bark introduces us to Jo and his mean owner who literately throws him away. Fortunately he is found by a new welcoming family. This family is threatened but Jo can't bark. Oh no!
#2 - Ginormous Joe’s Annoying Friend. In this one we meet Mo, another dog who annoys Jo to no end! Turns out that Mo just wanted to be friends but was super shy and didn't know what to do.
#3 - Ginormous Jo’s Secret- Here we meet Vinnie the cat. Jo has a secret lesson to teach Vinnie, Liswat, yep, you read that right - Liswat. That is the secret word. what does it mean? Lis - listen, wat - watch - Listen and watch. A good lesson indeed.
#4 - Ginormous Jo’s Silly Bullies - This one teaches about a very important subject in today's world - being bullied. We meet Mutley, a friend of Jo who is being bullied. Jo teaches her how to handle it and what to do (and what not to do).
#5 - Ginormous Jo’s Welcoming Arms - This one is about having a new addition to the family. It teaches how to be acceptable and helpful and responsible!
#6 - Ginormous Jo’s You Are Special - This was one of my favorites. It teaches about prejudice. And how everyone is special.
The pictures in these are gorgeous!
Being a cat person myself, this was one of my favorite ones -
I think there is actually 10 or 11 books but I only read 6 of them.
Fantastic series. Cute, fun, sad and sweet. All with a great lesson to be learned!
