Weenie Featuring Frank & Beans
Not-So- Sweetie Pie
Written By Maureen Fergus
Illustrated By Alexandra Bye
Published by Penguin Random

I want to preface this review by first saying , I am a first time grandmother and although my granddaughter is only 8 months old I will be buying this book for her library at both her home and ours. I absolutely loved this book, from the names of the characters right down to the antics they get into.
I am pretty sure Bob has his hands full with Weenie. Frank And Beans are adorable and try their best to keep Weenie out of trouble. When Bernice, Bob's sister brings her new puppy Sweetie-Pie for a surprise visit, we learn that he is a prize winning show dog and he also speaks French, that part made me laugh out loud. Bob is left in charge of Sweetie-Pie and I think it is safe to say that Weenie has his nose out of joint. When he blasted Sweetie-Pie along with Bob's slipper out of the cannon I could picture the smiling faces and laughter from every child who reads this book. What fun parents will have reading it with them. I also want to give Alexandra Bye congratulations on the beautiful illustrations , she really brought the characters come to life. I want to thank Maureen Fergus for writing such a cute story and for Penguin Random House Canada for allowing me to be an advanced reader in exchange for my honest review that I am giving voluntarily ..
