I read this book to my twin 4-year-old grandsons and they loved it. One test of a book with them is if they want me to read it again immediately after the first time. They wanted to hear this book three times in a row.

Kenzie & the Pest is a story of a dog who moves to a new neighborhood and has to cope with a lot of change in his life. At heart, this is a tale that teaches that change can be good and to give new things a chance before you reject them outright. I especially like the fact that the "annoying" brother turns into Kenzie's best friend. This can be a valuable lesson for any pair of siblings.

The watercolor illustrations are adorable and the length is just right for a bedtime story. I'd recommend this book for any kid from 3-8.
