My Review
Brilliant Baxter at the Funfair is a cute children's book about a special dog who saves the day while at a funfair with his humans. It's a short, easy read for kids, and parents will like the colorful illustrations and the sweet story overall. My son and I enjoyed reading it together.
5 stars!
