Angus and Sadie Book

This is young and optimistic and charming, and every so often you see these flashes of insight Voigt can't quite make vanish, even when writing in this simplified perspective:
Then Missus bent down to pick up some Snowing, but instead of throwing it to Angus, she threw it at Mister. "You fetch," she said.

"Hey!" he said, and threw some right back at her.

"Hey, yourself!" She laughed. "You shouldn't tease Angus that way. Or any way. Or any dog."

"Okay," Mister said. "You're right. Angus, come! I want to show you something."

Angus came, and Mister gave him the Snowing instead of letting him fetch it, and that wasn't nearly as much fun... It's just water, he told Sadie. No, it's Snowing, she told him. Try eating it, he advised her.

So she did. What happened to the Snowing? It's water! she said.

I shouldn't tease you that way, Angus said.It's weird to call a deliberately simple book narrated by two dogs elegant, but this IS. And funny!

And the last sentence is really beautiful, and such a perfect ending.
