Gr 2-3 Down Girl and Sit, two dogs, visit a dude ranch with their owners. Since the story is narrated by Down Girl, readers learn little about what the humans do on their vacation, but they will happily follow as the city pups meet Git Along, the ranch dog, and go on a series of adventures. They meet barking squirrels (prairie dogs), ugly dogs (coyotes), and get lost in the desert. They enjoy running free with no fences, but then realize that this could be a problem. This small-format chapter book has black-and-white drawings on most pages. It has a lot text but plenty of child appeal. It will charm youngsters who are ready for books with real plots and long sentences. It is the perfect next step for readers who have outgrown easy-to-reads."Susan Lissim, Dwight School, New York City"
