Publisher's summary

In the first children's book written by critically acclaimed, New York Times-bestselling superstar Isabel Allende, Perla, the mighty dog, teaches her human brother, Nico Rico, how to use his superpowers to stand up to a bully.

Perla is a mighty dog who has two superpowers—making people love her, and roaring like a lion. When she finds out her human brother, Nico Rico, is being bullied at school, she knows she has to step in! But what will Perla do?

In a charming and poignant story about the bond between child and pet, Isabel Allende makes her children's literary debut.

Critic reviews

"Confident and voluble, pooch protagonist Perla . . . [demonstrates] that fierceness and love can be two sides of the same coin. Sprightly, animated watercolor and ink drawings by Rodriguez (Lola and the Troll) . . . include the touches of domestic magic gestured to throughout this sprightly tale."—Publishers Weekly

"Allende has crafted a winsome portrait of a miniature, magical dog whose droll commentary makes for a fab read-aloud . . . Rodríguez’s vivid watercolor-and-ink artwork . . . [pulls] readers along in the fun from page to page . . . Paws up for this personable pooch."—Kirkus Reviews

"Allende's story emphasizes not only the importance of standing up to bullies but also that being small doesn't mean you have to feel small. Rodriguez's expressive and playful watercolor-and-ink illustrations give Perla fittingly large personality."—Booklist
