The first book in a sweet and funny new Branches series about a pug and his human, told from the pug's POV! Baron von Bubbles, aka "Bub," is the self-proclaimed cutest pug on the planet! Things he loves: fashion, peanut butter, and his human, Bella. Things he does NOT love: Nutz the squirrel, baths, and the rain. When Bella enters the Spirit of the Inventor Challenge, Bub helps her craft the best project ever. But what happens when Nutz gets on Bub's nerves and makes him ruin Bella's project? If Bub wants to make it up to his girl, he'll have to stand up to Nutz -- and the rain -- once and for all. With four-color artwork throughout, this funny and charming diary-format chapter book is perfect for anyone who believes a furry pal is the best kind of friend.
