About this ebook
Pingottino is a little old dog who loves pasta with meat sauce with all his heart. So, when Grandma Therese makes it for him, he would like to gobble it all up in one go.
But that day he is tired, very hungry, and his little back paws start slipping down as if he were wearing roller skates. Up and down, down and up! What a muddle!
The story is told by a child who can never really sit properly at the table: he wants to run off right away to play, watch cartoons and cuddle his little doggy, and that is why he sometimes gets told off. But when Pingottino ends up half standing and half sitting in front of his bowl, the whole family sees just how sweet and funny it can be not to sit PRO-PER-LY at all!
The main story text of this picture book is set entirely in small caps, with the aim of making the story more inclusive and accessible for early readers and for children who may find reading difficult.
An affectionate story about family, everyday rules and the special friendship between a child and his dog, ideal for reading aloud, at home or at school, and designed to accompany different readers, each at their own pace.
