"Bentley, Elliot, Charlene, and Hattie are adorable and lovable each in their own way and they teach young readers good lessons. Bentley shows readers how encouraging and helping others is better than bullying. Fifth in the Charlene the Star series, this a lovely book to have in one's personal collection because of the good lessons it conveys to young readers. It is a good story for read aloud sessions in classrooms because of the excellent messages. I like the thought of having a little quiz at the end of the story as it will help children find out how much they remember about the story, and how they can accomplish amazing things by working together. The author speaks about the challenges children face every day through this delightful story." ~ from 5-star Reader's Favorites Review by Mamta Madhavan Ms. Humphrys-Dunne cleverly puts these life lessons into a story where the animals are the protagonists, sharing their points of view. Children will enjoy this type of story telling, as well as the pencil illustrations which compliment the text nicely. Charlene the Star and Bentley Bulldog is a good book for children ages six to ten, which will teach them about setting goals, teamwork, and good character." ~ from 5-star review by Sherry EllisThis delightful book is my very first audio book review. The author, Deanie Humphrys-Dunne, has yet again, written a wonderful story using animals as voices of reason. The story is focused around a group of animals, including a bulldog named Bentley and Charlene, everybody's favourite horse in this particular series. But, what is so good about this book, is that it covers such important issues like bullying and helping others. Children, whilst reading, will not only be entertained but also will be learning some very key social issues. The book encourages young people to pursue their dreams with hard work and determination. Everything you could possibly wish for your child is packed into this very special story.from 5-star review by T. Collins"Very sweet, enjoyable story for children who enjoy animal stories."~Cat, Net Galley Reviewer

The narrator, too, Kimberly Botello-Flores, is an inspired choice as she really throws herself into each character, bringing this tale alive. Her ability to change her voice and instill passion into her work has made this book a recommended buy. ~ Audio book review by Tina Collins

From the Author

Charlene the Star is an entertaining tale told by the animal characters. Young readers enjoy this easy-to read chapter book where they meet Hattie the chicken, Wooliam the Sheep, Elliott the dog, and other animals. Each character has a special talent that helps the animals solve problems. "A great book for horse and animal lovers."

    5.0 out of 5 stars Life lessons with Charlene, the Star and bulldog Bentley
    Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2015
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I throughout enjoyed the story about Charlene The Star and Bentley the Bulldog.

    Deanie Dunne has done it again. I first was reading Charlene the star and Hattie’s Heroes. I already loved that incredible story about the horse and the chicken with their thinking's and their conversations and there things they did, helping other horses and animals to believe in themselves. Horses that they can win races and chickens to believe in themselves.

    Now in that story they are doing the unthinkable and organize a talent show. Everyone was invited, particular the chickens. The show was there to show the animals that everyone could do something and was good in it. And it was building up their self-esteem. They invited Bentley, the bulldog. He has to learn, that bullying, what he was doing and was very good in it, is not good and he learns his lesson. He learns the value of friendship and he becomes good friends with Charlene, the horse and Hattie the chicken.

    Children can see that they can believe in oneself that they can achieve what they like to be. Building up their self-esteem.

    Deanie’s books are especially good for children to see and to learn that they can achieve what they like to be.

    The little drawing are going fantastic with the book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good book for discussion of emotions and bullying...
    Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2017
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This cute story begins with Charlene the Star (a horse) who begins telling the story. She and her friends talk to other animals but not humans. Charlene the Star is preparing for a big jumping competition. She wants to win an award for being the best jumper in the whole state of Kentucky. She notices a bulldog (Bentley) on the sidelines and befriends him. Bentley turns out to be quite the sarcastic bully. He is invited to his first horse show, but Charlene hopes he will have good manners. But will he behave? Will Charlene win the award at her show? You will have to read this story to find out the answers. I recommend this book for introducing talk about what a bully is and how to respond in an uncomfortable situation where bullying is going on.

    If you have not read Tails of Sweetbrier, it is a must do! Tails of Sweetbrier is a touching true story of determination about a little girl that was diagnosed with a condition Cerebral Palsy and was told by her doctor that she would never be able to walk. Her father would not accept that diagnosis and instills faith in his little girl, and he set out to teach her to ride horses and felt if she could do that, she would be okay. Loved this book!

    Charlene the Star and Bentley Bulldog- Volume 3 by Author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne and Illustrator Holly Humphrys-Bajaj

    Another lovely children's book by talented Author Deanie Humphrys-Dunne. It is easy to see why she is an award-winning author as she is able to bring to life her cute cast of animal characters in the most creative way. From Charlene the jumping horse, to Elliot and Bentley the dogs, and Hattie the talking chicken with the colorful hat, each character adds to the plot and moral of the story.

    Bentley the bull dog does not have good manners and is rude to Hattie. He's never learned appropriate behavior and has bullied other animals but no one holds his ignorance against him. Instead, they all take the opportunity to embrace Bentley into their lives and teach him proper etiquette. All the animals decide to work together to cheer up the chickens who are experiencing a bout of depression. Charlene the Star also chips in to help raise money for such a good cause. She continues to do well in her jumping endeavors but she's discovered a new emotion. Could it be love? Charlene finds herself attracted to Judge, another jumping horse and now she must concentrate extra hard to keep focused...

    Once again the questions and answers at the back of the book create plenty of food for thought and will encourage discussion amongst children when the opportunity arises. Great illustrations by the author's sister Holly Humphrys-Bajaj.
