School Library Journal Review

K-Gr 2-The cover portrait of the title character compels readers to open this moving-to-a-new-house tale. Ellen is apprehensive about her new neighborhood, and then her pup runs away. As she and Mom search for him, their encounters with friendly shopkeepers help the girl warm to her new environment. Naughty Baxter is finally found in the company of another Yorkie, whose owner befriends Ellen. April admires Baxter's outfit, and when Ellen replies that she knit it for him, April asks to be taught how. Lambert's realistic paintings offer an idyllic village of friendly folk. Children will enjoy this cozy story.-Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA (c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Horn Book Review

Emily's concern about moving turns to real worry when her Yorkie disappears the day they move in. As she and her mother search for the "yippy, yappy" little dog in the hand-knit green sweater, they meet their new neighbors and Emily makes a friend. Pastel illustrations capture both the tidy, cobblestone-paved neighborhood and the special relationship between Emily and her pet. (c) Copyright 2012.
