Good boy! The movie novel Essay

Good boy! The movie novelThis 144 pages work by Kathleen Weidner Zoehfeld named Good Boy! The Movie Novel published in 2003 by Harper Festival is a truly intriguing book targeted towards a reader section aging 8 to 12 years.

The author  Kathleen Weidner Zoehfeld is known for her writings directed towards children in several occasions with titles such as What Lives in a Shell?, What Is the World Made Of? and How Mountains Are Made. This title Good Boy! The Movie Novel is a story about Owen and Hubble, an alien from a planet far away.  Hubble is an alien dog who is on a mission to Earth in order to enable earth dogs to be prepared for a visit of Greater Dane, the ancestral leader of all dogs. Greater Dane is from Sirius and Hubble is afraid that she would be terribly angry once she finds the actual situation of the dogs in planet earth.

Thus it becomes a problem for Owen to find a way out that can save the dogs of the earth and make friends with the aliens.This novel is extremely well written and like the movie the text version is a highly enjoyable material. This book is particularly well detailed as it is based on the screenplay of the movie and quite a few instance of good humor like comments such as “How much is that person in the window?” (Zoehfeld, 2003) Another advantage of reading this book would be to find a better explanation of events shown in the movie. All in all this book is enjoyable as much as the movie itself.Reference:Zoehfeld, Kathleen Weidner; September 2, 2003; Good Boy!: the Movie Novel; Harper Festival
