Summary: A book I think many would enjoy.
Comment: If I had read this book when I was younger, I would definately have rated it 5 stars.
One day, all the dogs in the world wake up to find that everyone is asleep except dogs (and later two cats and a young human boy, who where 'official' dogs). The dogs are not hungry, and they can open doors, fly, and really do anything they want. Pongo and Missis try to find out what happened. Cruella is back, but she is asleep (she sells 'clothes that clank' with her husband), and has nothing whatsoever to do with the mysterious sleeping.
Pongo and Perdita 'swoosh' (fly) over to london to meet with their daughter, Cadpig (the one that did almost not live at birth. Lucky had spots in the formation of a horseshoe, that's why he was named Lucky.), who belonged to the prime minister.

Summary: A Wonderful Book!
Comment: This was an amazing book. When I first started reading it, I wondered about some changes in the story compared to Disney's Movie. I think it was not good for Disney to change the story, and love the Starlight Barking much better than Disney's sequel, 102 Dalmations. It was cool to see that dogs could fly, open doors, and talk long-distance (with out paying extra!) I love this fantisy, but I think that Sirus should have let them have one special day like this every year and get to visit them. I certanly wouldn't mind sleeping in so that dogs could have fun. Once I dreamed that there were 20 books in the series, and that me and my friend tried to buy them all. I wish there really were 20 books.
Rating: 4
Summary: Really 4.5 stars
Comment: This book is a good sequel to the very well known "The 101 Dalmations." It's interesting that many have read the first book but not the second and that's a shame. What's new about this book is that it focuses on the supernatural when dogs can fly and all the people are asleep. It's not for everyone though as some might be put off by it's new age style. If you've read the first book this is worth a look.
