Holy cats this book was horrifying. You can‘t tell from the book cover or the fact that it‘s a children‘s book that it‘s basically about the mistreatment and murder of a dog. I was horrified reading it aloud tonight.

Roary47 Oh dear. I knew this was a sad part of history, but will be cautious if I see it in my kids library preferences. 1y
BethM @Roary47 I didn‘t know about it at all. The writing style is very blunt. It‘s much more like a fact based this is what it is book than a children‘s picture book 1y

Chrissyreadit ugh!! i wonder what‘s up with his iron! How is he sleeping? Hope you are getting rest! and the blanket is fun- i had to take it out of plastic to make it easier to mail…. 1y
