Daisy and Maisie and the Great Lizard Hunt — Connie Shelton

Daisy is a big yellow puppy who loves to chase critters in the desert near their Arizona home. One day, her adventure brings a few scary surprises. In this story, spunky young Daisy learns the value of patience and of looking before you leap. The Daisy and Maisie adventure stories are designed for children in the early-reader stage and for those who love to have a story read to them. In each story, inexperienced Daisy learns a life lesson usually with the help of her older dog-sibling, Maisie.
