Muffy & Valor

"A touching, easy-to-read children's story...based on an actual event pertaining to the author's own dog." - Stevie Turner, author. A sweet nonfiction picture book with Hispanic family that teaches compassion, friendship, trust, and courage (kids ages 3 - 7, preschool - second grade, especially for children with a fear of dogs).

Muffy is a little dog who loves people; but after a painful injury she is wary of other dogs. Valor is a lost German shepherd who gets hit by a car. When Muffy's family brings Valor home to recover, no one is sure what Muff will do. Kids love the dog counting activity and online EXTRAS.
