About This Book
Reach for this book when your children are constantly bickering over shared responsibilities or when you want to prepare a child for the teamwork required to care for a pet. It is an ideal pick for siblings who love animals but struggle to agree on the right way to help out at home. The story follows twins Alfie and Alfreeda Wolfe as they help run their family's dog kennel, Hound Hotel. While they both adore their canine guests, they rarely see eye to eye on how to manage them. Through the arrival of a new, high energy dog named Murphy, the twins must navigate their differences to ensure their furry visitor is happy and safe. This early chapter book is perfect for ages 6 to 9, offering a humorous yet practical look at compromise, accountability, and the joy of animal companionship. It helps children understand that while people have different styles of working, the shared goal of kindness and care is what matters most.
