WOWZERS! BUY THIS BOOK!,
This review is from: A Gift to Share (Hardcover)
What a sweet entertaining story which is set in to pages of artistic splendor. If you ever have loved a dog, this is a must get book. How refreshing to read something simply innocent and lovely. The pictures will warm your cold winter bones. What talent this woman has in bringing the breed to life. If you buy only one childrens book this year, let it be this one. Its great for adults too!

After reading Nose to Nose, I only imagined Barry would create such a touching account of Moritz's life for children to understand. These dogs have deeply enriched my own life and his book helps for children to understand how much an animal can help to change their life too. All animals are special and deserve such recognition that Moritiz has received. He is helping to bridge this gap!! Thank you for the wonderful book. We have read it almost every night since we bought it!! Looking forward to more of Moritz's adventures in the future!!

charming fable,
By D. Burke (Montana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Gift to Share (Hardcover)
Lovely illustrations capture the essence of a gorgeous, huge, appealing Bernese Mountain dog. You immediately want to hug him. He becomes a therapy pet and visits children in hospitals to cheer them up. The story taps into the strong emotional connection between humans and dogs, as well as the importance of compassion and non-verbal understanding. A lesson for both children and adult readers is that everyone has a gift to share, even dogs.
