We dog lovers have long wondered what our pups would say if they could actually talk. That's the genius of a new animated kid's show based on Susan Meddaugh's popular book series, Martha Speaks. Martha, the family dog, eats alphabet soup and gains the ability to speak. While having adventures--including dealing with the family's new puppy, trying out to be a firehouse dog and going camping--she uses that skill to advise the children in her family (and the listeners to her radio talk show) on topics like communication, courage and being yourself. Along the way she also teaches them vocabulary words. Good dog.
Aimed at 4 to 7-year-olds, Martha Speaks premieres on PBS today. Check the PBS listings for local times and dates.
