ketutar's review against another edition

4.0

it's not as good as 101 dalmatians - it's more a scifi fairytale - one night the dogs wake up and all the people just sleep...

edit: 24/2-23
I liked it a lot when I read it when I was 10 or something like that. Now it's just stupid.

A friend loaned this to me as a joke. It's a slightly bizarre continuation of the adventures of 101 Dalmatians and, at times, a bit surreal. I can't decide if it w meant as a children's book or not.

I read this book in one day. It is simple and sweet, and a nice change from all the long books I have been reading lately. I would recommend it for young readers and those who like to just dip into the world of books without getting swallowed.
