About this item

Nanny Paws looks after Ally and Mae the only way she knows how - as a dog would. There's nothing she wouldn't do for her girls. She feeds them a hearty breakfast (cookies are best) , picks up their toys (teddy bears fit nicely in freshly dug holes) , and even walks them to school (running them there is fun too) . But one Tuesday, Ally and Mae come home sick, and it's up to Nanny Paws to take care of them ... in her own special way.
