Description

Barnabas loves helping his family. His "help" comes in the form of barking, tooting, and drooling. Barnabas' family; however, has had enough of his bad manners. Will obedience school change Barnabas' bad-mannered ways or will his family be forced to live with their bad-mannered bulldog? Told through the point of view of Barnabas, the mother-son team of Cindy and Chris Gray perfectly capture the perspective of a family pet that will have both parents and children laughing out loud.

Critical Reviews

It's a fun and funny story about unflappable Barnabas. Even though his habits aren't loved by his family, in the end he is always at the center of their hearts and their family. I know children will love this book, enjoying Barnabas' toots, barks and drools. We all relate to the teacher who gets frustrated trying to teach this energetic dog his manners. I couldn't be more pleased with the end result - it's fun to read, has wonderful illustrations, and was made with real love.

- Laura Atkins, Children's Book Author & Editor

"If you have a bulldog, I'm sure you can relate to the poor family at the heart of this story. And if not, you'll probably get a kick out of it too. I mean bulldogs will be bulldogs, right?! Thanks to Chris for sharing this fun read with me!"
