Let's Read Mom!

Want to help your children grow up loving dogs? Read dog stories to them and you're sure to turn out an animal lover. Today Oliver is posing with some new giveaways that you can enter to win for your child, grandchild, niece, nephew, or classroom.

 One of the books that a lucky reader will snag is a favorite of my own kids--Stone Fox. This book was made into a move, and I'm pretty sure we read it 50 times while my children were growing up. It's a classic story to be enjoyed by all ages. 

 If you'd prefer the sure-thing acquisition of these books, here are some links to purchase each:

 Stone Fox Kindle Version
Stone Fox Paperback
Pet Trouble: Oh No, Newf! Paperback
The Leanin' Dog Paperback

 Entries will be accepted through Thursday, April 11 at midnight. The 3 winners will be named late on Friday, April 12, and notified via email. Good luck!

 Happy tails,

The books being given away were purchased by me at a warehouse sale and are being given away to promote reading for kids, while many of their parents are on my blog reading about dogs. Enjoy and don't forget to join your child in reading every day.

    I liked Where the Red Fern grows, I can't remember what age I was when I first heard it, but it was great and very sad at the same time.

    It may be a fictional dogs, but my favorite to read growing up was Peanuts because of Snoopy. :)

    The Fox and the Hound was good. But you are old enough, like me, we read about a dog as we were learning to read. Who remembers "SPOT" and his human children, "DICK, JANE and SALLY".

    "SEE SPOT RUN. RUN SPOT RUN."


    Yes, I am an old fart!

    I would love to win one of these bookds for my niece Stella.

    I think I wore my parents out wanting them to read "Cannonball Simp" when I was growing up.

    My mother brought me a book when I was about 11 yrs old. It was, "Goodbye My Lady" by James H. Street. I can still remember crying so hard while reading that book!
