Pampered Paco is Mexican short hair chihuahua (the smallest dog breed). He wants to win the heart of Afghan Natasha. His problem is that he thinks because he is only seven pounds that he is too puny and tiny to be taken seriously. Then Natasha disappears.
Paco enlists the help of Professor Pewy Pewmount, Norma-jean, Little Annie, Coco ,and the forest’s insects, and four legged animals to save the day. They face danger to keep ten year old Olivia and her friends safe bring Natasha home safely from Mount Diablo.
This is an adventure of courage, wisdom, and insight. Sayings like “Even a difficult journey over the tallest mountains goes downhill half the time,” “Never give up,” and “Success owes much to luck. It owes more to good planning. Most of the timer it needs a good does of both,” flavor the story. This book is imaginative, entertaining, and not preachy.

My Take on the Book:
This was a fun story that I really encourage all to read. The name alone for me was something that drew me in. The book was not what I would have expected, but that is a good thing. I was able to actually get through the entire book in one read and I know you will as well. There are laughs as well as a bit of intrigue mixed into the story. I know if you are at all like me you will be wrapped into the book until the very end!
