Putter and the Red Car: A Cross Country Family Adventure is the story of a dog, Putter, that goes on a trip across the United States from Boston to Seattle with his family. The story is told from the dog’s point of view. Putter shares with us the cities that he stopped in and some firsts that he experienced.

The book is cute and simple. The illustration are nice watercolors. They lend nicely to the overall feel and simplicity of the book.

I knew that JT would love this book because he loves dogs. He especially loved it since Putter is the one telling the story. Connor also enjoyed reading the book to JT. Puter and the Red Car leaves a with a nice message. We can learn from Putter that we shouldn’t be scared to try new things or go on new adventures. We should try to be like Putter and be excited and optimistic for new adventures that will come our way.

I also like that at the end of the book there is a map that shows us where Putter went on his adventure. I think that this book would make a nice starting out point for young kids to learn some geography.

**JT Says**

“I like the book. I love the dog. I want to pet him and hug him. I like all the pictures of Putter. My favorite is this one because it has two dogs.”

If you’d like to check out this book you can find it on Amazon. I believe it will be enjoyed by young readers anywhere from 4-8, especially if they love dogs.
