Fido - Dog Diaries #13 by Kate Klimo
copyright 2018 with 147 pages

Disappointing.

Fido is not portrayed as a very smart dog. He is less aware of what is going on than the other dogs he associates with, especially in current and political events.
Mrs. Lincoln doesn't care for him, he refers to her as Little Missy.
Mrs. Lincoln makes this comment about Fido, "Don't mind Fido. He thinks he's a fierce watchdog, but he's really a bit of a coward". He doesn't dispute this. Other than these comments, Fido doesn't seem to be much different than any other dog.
There doesn't seem to be much that is special about him.
I would prefer in a children's book for the main character to show some stronger personality traits and virtues.
There are some attempts at humor, but they were weak. Not much action in a 147 page book.
A nice idea for a story, but this one did not hold our interest.

Gene and I don't recommend this one.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
