Book Review -Henry and Mudge in the Sparkle Days-

His mother lit the candles, and they began eating. But while they ate, they could hear Mudge crying. He hadn't een invited to the fancy Christmas Eve dinner because he was a dog. He had to stay in Henry's room. Poor Mudge, thought Henry. Poor Mudge, thought Henry's parents. They all looked at each other. Then Henry's father smiled. He got up to find an extra plate. Henry and his mother and his father filled the plate with food. Then Henry let Mudge out of his room. When Mudge came to the table, Henry's father put the plate of food on the floor.

Today, I read "Henry and Mudge in the Sparkle Days"

It is ready to read and written by Cynthis Rylant.

It consists of three storys. I liked the second story of christmas.

A dog named Mudge couldn't eat christmas dinner, but after that could dinner in the dining room and by candlelight.

Mudge and his family had a very good time of christmas.

The secound story of the book is very wonderful, also the first and third story is wonderful!
