To say that her antics are sometimes hilarious is somewhat of an understatement. The fact that she can translate what other animals say comes in very handy at times, as she attempts to live in a world that real dogs rarely understand. And, consequently, her human caregivers learn some new tricks from this very intelligent mutt. Martha manages to wriggle herself into all kinds of situations while learning what words and phrases really mean by human standards. Produced by WGBH Boston and Studio B Productions, Inc., the show creatively introduces words to a young audience straight from a dog's point of view. Thus, she begins to talk, and talk, and talk. One day, Martha accidentally eats some of "Martha's Alphabet Soup," and discovers that the letters go to her head instead of her stomach.
Martha is the dog of Helen Lorraine, a ten year old little girl.
Susan took that one premise and her real dog, Martha, and constructed a very creative series of books which have now been transformed into a PBS animated series. What would my dog say if it could talk? That was the question the daughter of children's author, Susan Meddaugh asked one day while eating alphabet soup.
