Critic Reviews

Praise for Pug Blasts Off: A Branches Book (Diary of a Pug #1): "May's cutesy, full-color cartoon art sets the tone for this pug-tastic romp for the new-to-chapter-books crowd. Bub's infectious first-person narration pushes the silly factor off the charts." -- Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Pug's Snow Day: A Branches Book (Diary of a Pug #2): "The full-color cartoon illustrations, especially of Bub, are adorably expressive and certain to please the age group. A strong, accessible diary story for readers seeking an adorable animal tale." -- Kirkus Reviews

"May's next title in the Diary of a Pug series is a hilarious and heartwarming tale of a dog's first snow... Readers new to chapter books will love the unique diary format and vibrant illustrations." -- School Library Journal
