The Wiener Dog Magnet is about a young monkey named Kiki Marie who after working hard in her home got her allowance and went out to buy a magnet. She picked a magnet that was in the shape of a wiener dog, it was very cute and she loved it. However as she got closer to where the real wiener dogs lived they started sticking to the magnet, so many in fact that she couldn't even carry it anymore, and was very saddened. Suddenly she noticed a couple of small alligators trapped on rock in the middle of a creek, using all the strength she had she threw some of the dogs to them and because the magnet was so strong they made a wiener dog bridge and the alligators walked to safety. The king of the alligators thanked Kiki and gave her a blue ribbon and that night Kiki slept very soundly.

I would recommend this book to any child who has an imagination and a sense of humor.

I can think of no conflict that could come from this book.

I found this website of amateur authors of children's books and i was actually somewhat impressed. This story was unique and a cute idea and the pictures i'm sure the children will greatly enjoy. Though it was extremely random and not completely developed the idea was unique and different.

My rating 2 out of 5
