Norman, Speak!

Category: Picture Books

By Caroline Adderson & Qin Leng, 2014

Overwhelmed by dogs in need at their local animal shelter, a young boy chooses Norman, the stray that’s been there the longest. His family quickly learns that Norman won’t respond to commands. During a chance encounter with another dog owner in the park, the family is very surprised to learn the reason for Norman’s confusion; he “speaks” Chinese instead of English! It’s a comical yet thought-provoking story.
