Mindy Kim and the Birthday Puppy

Written by Lyla Lee and Dung Ho

Narrated by Jaine Ye

Mindy Kim is having the BEST. DAY. EVER.
IT’S HER BIRTHDAY!
Not only is she having a fun party with her friends, but she’s also getting the most
perfect present from her dad: a puppy! Mindy has wanted a dog ever since she
can remember. She knows that a dog will be just the thing to cheer her dad up
too. But Mindy quickly finds out that cute, cuddly little Theodore is a LOT more
work than she thought. He doesn’t like to sit, he isn’t so sure of other dogs, and
he breaks a lot of things. And Mindy is worried that Theodore won’t make fourlegged friends of his own.
With some extra love (and some tasty treats!), Mindy is on a mission to help the
newest member of the Kim family adjust to his new life. Will she succeed? Or will
it turn into a furry fiasco?
