Have you ever wondered what the life of a free-roaming dog in South America is like? Maybe you’ve never thought about it, until now! Papayo brings excitement and adventure to all ages reading. Papayo sets a great example of a daily routine of work and play.
Our son loves dogs and adventures. 10/10 recommend for all kiddos! Enjoy!

We bought this book for a few of our friend’s kids and it has been a HIT! We love children’s books that inspire a love for both animals and traveling—two things that we love as a family as well. The author did a fantastic job!

Absolutely love this book! We received this as a gift and my 2 year old son absolutely adores it. Every night at bedtime he runs and grabs this book out of the hundreds he has and wants to read it every night. He loves looking at the cute pictures of Papayo as we read him all the fun adventures. We love to travel and love that it brings a new culture into his life! Definitely recommend for little ones!

Papayo the Peruvian Puppy is a fantastic story that takes my kids and I on an international adventure before bed at night! We enjoy the cute storyline and fun illustrations! Highly recommend this read!

Bought this book for my nieces and nephews (ages 7, 4,3,2, 1.5) and they LOVE it. They ask for the “puppy book” at night before bed. Such a fun read and love the real life adventures Emily and Papayo had. Can’t wait to see where Papayo goes next. 5 stars!

One thing I always enjoy seeing in a children’s book is a true story by the author written so that it is relatable for a child. This very enjoyable book is a story about a chance encounter with a friendly puppy while the author was on vacation. The story, along with cute illustrations of the puppy, make the book fun to read. The book is written in a rhyming and rhythmic style, which is very age-appropriate for a young reader. I recently sent a copy of this book to a friend who teaches first grade. She read it to her class the next day, and the students loved it. They all signed a card to thank me for gifting the book.
Thank you for such a happy book Emily. I’ll be looking forward to the next one!

Adorable, enjoyable book for both young and older readers!

As an undergrad Spanish major, I’ve always had an appreciation for South America, Peru included! Now I’m able to share this interest with my 6 nieces and nephews by reading them Papayo: The Peruvian Puppy. It has great illustrations, engaging rhymes, and a fun story for them all to follow! Can’t wait for the next book!
