SNIFF BOUNCES BACK

Sniff is a huge dog who loves to show his affection (moist as it is) to his family. He also creates mayhem because he's forceful and enthusiastic. Narrator Dominic Taylor lets out all stops as he recreates the burble of baby Sal, big-kid/little-kid rivalries, and realistic adult-child relationships. A highlight is the Texas family that visits England and brings big appetites for BBQ, strongly voiced opinions, and Lone Star accents. A fun listen imparts lessons about growing up and warm humor.
