The Adventures of Poppy and Lu by Victoria Elledge is a story of friendship. Lu is a little girl who wants to have a pup. She tells her parents about her wish to own a pup. She goes through pictures of many dogs with her parents and finally they decide to buy a German Shorthaired Pointer which is the right size to handle for Lu, even after it is fully grown. Poppy, on the other hand, is a pup who is looking for a home. The story is about how both of them find each other and they know they are going to be friends for life. Poppy and Lu will take readers with them on their adventures.
It is a beautiful story of bonding and friendship.
