For all of you peace-loving children's book readers, I just want to share a relatively new book that is so sweet and delightful.  This book is called, The Poet's Dog, and it is written by the well-known writer, Patricia MacLachlan.


It's a little bit depressing for the kid reader despite a remarkably happy ending, but for the adult, it is so tender and sweet.  Of course it is; it's about a poet and a dog, as well as some very cute kids!


I think that everyone in the world should read this book.  As a new dog-keeper, this book spoke to my hopes and fears about my new fur-baby pet.  There are really cool surprises in this book, and I do so much recommend it.


Thank you for checking in on me here, even though I've been gone for so long.  I'm really hoping that some of you might read this book, or find some other great children's books to read on your own!
