The Life And Adventures Of A Dog Named Sweety

Pit bulls always seem to get a bad name. But Sweety the pit bull is a good dog who is friendly and loving. When author Doreen D. Diana and her family adopt her, they find she is a very special dog. It takes some time and effort for Sweety to get used to her new home and to new ways of doing things. She has to figure out how to go up and down steps and how to go potty outside. When Sweety visits the dog park, she soon gets to know other dogs, but she also discovers the importance of walking away from bullies. She meets Bunny, a wild rabbit who lives in the backyard of her house, and has an encounter with an orange-and-white kitten who comes to visit. All the while, Sweety and her family learn important and valuable lessons. This true story for children describes the first few weeks that Sweety the pit bull spends with her new family and outlines the efforts it takes to adopt a new dog.

Blockheads, Beagles, and Sweet Babboos: New Perspectives on Charles M. Schulz's "Peanuts" sheds new light on the past importance, ongoing significance, and future relevance of a comics series that millions adore: Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts. More specifically, it examines a fundamental feature of the series: its core cast of characters. In chapters devoted to Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Franklin, Pigpen, Woodstock, and Linus, author Michelle Ann Abate explores the figures who made Schulz’s strip so successful, so influential, and—above all—so beloved. In so doing, the book gives these iconic figures the in-depth critical attention that they deserve and for which they are long overdue. Abate considers the exceedingly familiar characters from Peanuts in markedly unfamiliar ways. Drawing on a wide array of interpretive lenses, Blockheads, Beagles, and Sweet Babboos invites readers to revisit, reexamine, and rethink characters that have been household names for generations. Through this process, the chapters demonstrate not only how Schulz’s work remains a subject of acute critical interest more than twenty years after the final strip appeared, but also how it embodies a rich and fertile site of social, cultural, and political meaning.
