Product Description
Ike finds his civil liberties at risk when Hugo Bugwort, the hard line mayoral candidate, promises to crack down on free-roaming, fun-loving dogs. As the anti-dog rhetoric escalates, Ike is compelled to join the political fray and run for mayor himself. Bugwort rethinks his pooch-policies when Ike selflessly helps rescue him after he collapses at a campaign rally. Told through letters to Mrs. LaRue and local newspaper accounts, Mark Teague delivers another excellent execution of split-screen visuals and uproarious escapades of the unforgettable Ike.

 Good story, excellent artwork November 19, 2008
Ernest M. Fujimura (Scottsdale, AZ USA)
This is another excellent book in the "Ike LaRue" series by Mark Teague. The story is interesting and the artwork is excellent. This book was purchased for, and by an adult who works in a public library and came across the "Ike LaRue" series. She liked them so much, she decided to buy them for her personal collection.

Our favorite wire fox terrier continues his adventures. More fun and mischeiviousness from our funny boy!
Tells of a dog determined to uphold the laws of Snort City June 15, 2008
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
Mark Teague's LARUE FOR MAYOR: LETTERS FROM THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL tells of a dog determined to uphold the laws of Snort City - and determined to gain the votes from Intelligent Voters. His efforts take the form of whimsical, fun letters and communications with his potential voters in this hilarious story of a dog's bid for public office.

The bizarre behavior of the dogs in this book is no example for children in achieving their mission. I expected LaRue to be a model candidate which he was not. I would not recommend this book for children of any age although it was highly recommended in an article I read in a local newspaper. It isn't even humorous unless you think attacking dogs upsetting everything in their path is humorous.
The graphics are colorful and well done, however, that's why I gave it two stars.

You have to look really hard to see that this book is in Spanish. We don't speak Spanish. I had to donate it to the Spanish teacher at my daughter's school. It would cost me the price of the book to return it. And you do not have the English version.
