Do you remember your first pet and the responsibilities of taking care of that pet?
Matthew has wanted a puppy much "longer than he ever wanted a baby sister". Join the Martin family as they welcome Rollo. Matthew is faced with one major problem- Rollo snores "louder than a four hundred pound gorilla". The snoring keeps Matthew awake and he works to solve the problem with some very entertaining ideas. Would you sleep outside or push your puppy in a baby carriage to get some rest? Most of Matthew's efforts are failures. He puts away his science kit, the syrup, the melted peanut butter, and the other failed experiments. In desperation, he thinks of one more thing to try. Finally, Matthew sleeps even though Rollo continues to snore
Follow-up activities assures parents and teachers that Rollo Snores is more than just a bedtime story. Get ready to join in the "sniffing, snorting, and sighing" as Rollo Snores becomes your favorite "read it again" story.
