This book tackles a tough problem many families and dogs might and do face -- the dog needs a new home and family. This does happen in real life. My friend just adopted a dog as the owner passed away right after her dog also did so. Children can learn about these situations and have some understanding for people and dogs in this situation.

In Rufus, the older man begins to face the fact he can no longer appropriately care for his dog. He forgets to feed it, and forgets it is outside (and in the cold). Realizing the dog needs a new family and that he requires fewer responsibilities, he makes some decisions. He meets a family that does fall in love with the dog and takes it home.

It is a sad story line but carefully composed in rhyme and very young children might not fully understand the situation. They know dogs get adopted which is a happy thought in their minds. Primary age children will probably "get the drift" but be able to understand without becoming upset. It is sad for all of us when older relatives face such difficulties. This book can be helpful to families in several life situations.

Fuzzy Wuzzy is a story with real photos of bears and a wolf that helps children learn to listen when given directions. The pictures are clear and further the story line. The bears are adorable. The wolf is . . . realistic! For a child who might need reminders about listening to parents, this is the perfect read aloud. Children who like science and animals will like it as well.

Of course, the story is fiction and ends happily as all good children's stories do!… (mehr)

Mysterious figure in the dark -- who is it?

Solving these murders required overcoming seemingly virtually insurmountable obstacles. Every lead seemed to go to a dead end. There seemed to be only circumstantial evidence. The murderer left an ancient coin under the victims tongues, confusing everything but revealing the deaths were tied together. Danger increases as the ending builds and the cases are solved.

This book helps point out situations of sexual abuse, and there is factual information about the topic provided.… (mehr)

Varied and intelligent stories

The different topics and subjects of these short stories is amazing. Each is so unique and well understood. Fortune tellers, military personalities, explorers, gamblers, and others are revealed in stories that are actually parts or samples of novels. They could be read as flash fiction and forgotten, or be part of further reading by clicking on the links to the complete books. Great and thought provoking reading.
