As a parent, I appreciate the positive language the author used to encourage children to be kind and patient with dogs as well as themselves." --Celeste A. Ramirez, President and Owner of CARA Construction Management, mother of Catherine (11-year-old dog owner) "My daughter is a dog lover, but not a fan of reading. She could not put this book down! My child has read it more than once because it doesn't feel like a boring manual, and there is so much to learn about dogs. I feel like now she knows more than most people do!" --Yuan Wang, mother of Siena (8-year-old dog owner)
