Zip & Milly: Big Water EPISODE 2
Zip and Milly is a book about adventures of two Spaniels, published in weekly installments.
My Human, the Old Lady, has a small computer with a picture of an apple that I tried to bite once, back when I was younger. The Old Lady is sentimental that way. I know she keeps my puppy leash too, even though it has not fit me for almost two years. And she likes snapping my pictures, especially when she thinks I don’t notice.
Anyway, the bitten apple computer is a good machine, even though it is getting old and the power button gets stuck sometimes, and so The Old Lady finally resorted to never turning it off for the night. This is great by me: when she is asleep, I can use the apple computer to keep my diary.

Zip and Milly – It takes a while to read, but it’s worth the time. My 8, 9, and 13-year-olds read this story as I did. English Springer Spaniels Zip and Milly are siblings and share the stage with Theo the fox and his daughter Freckle, and Rosie, a cat. The human is an 84-year-old scientist that Zip protects every minute of the day.
I like that the vocabulary was a higher level. My kids read their books with dictionaries nearby, which is mandatory in our family, and did not have a problem with adult words. I was reading the Classics already by age eight, so a larger range in vocabulary is not a problem in my eyes.
While this book is for children, it reads well for all ages. I enjoyed the book just as much as the rugrats did and we give the book 5stars. I found this book on Booksprout. 5*
