| This
book is a true story of the author's little dog, Muffy, who
after an accident has a very hard time accepting other dogs,
and a new addition to the family, Valor, a German Shephard,
who has some injuries to heal from as well.
I admit,
a few times through the story I was a bit scared of the illustrations
of the dog Muffy, as they were pretty ferocious. However,
seeing the images really pulls you into the story and shows
you just how scared little Muffy was. It also is great to
see the difference in the body images of Muffy towards the
end of the story after coming full circle with the help of
Valor.
This
is book is a great story to read with children to help them
learn compassion and understanding of not only animals but
humans as well. As my daughter said after reading this, "All
libraries in school need this book to help kids understand
how to interact with animals." I agree my little one.
