It comes to us from first time author, Vanessa Seddon. Ms. Seddon has written Troy The Boy Dachshund as if Troy himself is speaking to us! Troy tells us what it was like being adopted by those big humans from the animal shelter. He also describes them taking him home and being a gift for another big human. Through Troy’s eyes, we meet his new brothers and sisters. His big sister, Simba, shows him all the bugs in the back yard and Troy gets very excited! There is so much to do in his new home! Troy likes his new big sister, Simba. She’s a dog like he is. Then he meets his other brothers and sisters…the cats. Troy just can’t help himself. He has to chase them! What else is he supposed to do? Why does Troy have to go outside to pee or poo? Troy says that his humans call him a naughty boy when he doesn’t go outside. He also tells us how he was a naughty boy when he chewed those fun toys called shoes but he sure has fun chewing them! What’s a puppy supposed to do to stay out of trouble? We all cheer with Troy when he finally learns how to be a good boy. Troy The Boy Dachshund is written as if he is actually talking to you. In this story, you will find out that puppies, kittens and other animals have to learn to behave just like you do!
