A sweet story aimed at early readers. Bertram is a scruffy stray puppy, taken in by Peter, Ann, Jane and Timothy's parents. He causes mayhem in the neighbours gardens but all the children love him. Bertram is too scruffy to be allowed to go to the big neighbourhood wedding. Can the children make the grown ups change their mind if they give their beloved pooch a makeover?! Lovely line drawing illustrations by Margery Gill. Not much substance but a sweet story. ( )
