Book Description

July 2003
Two newcomers to the world of children's books have combined their talents to bring you this story, told from the point of view of a loving and wise sheltie named Rowdy. The wonderful illustrations bring Rowdy's story to life as he relates his life from puppyhood, when he was brought to a strange new home, to growing up in the love of a family who's closeness between each other and with him is heartwarming.

The value of pets and their bond with humans is explored while bringing the concept of a dog's feelings to the forefront. It is a wonderful story for children about family love and values, and is based on the real-life Rowdy and his family.

The story starts when Rowdy is six weeks old. He describes adventures such as being chosen by his new family, learning to go potty, enjoying nature and playing, meeting a skunk, visiting the vet, learning what his family means to him, and much more.

This book will tug at your heart, make you laugh, and bring Rowdy into your own living room.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet Story about a Sweet Sheltie, March 9, 2005
This review is from: Rowdy: The Sheltie (Paperback)
Excellent story for families who don't have a pet, YET! Choosing a puppy and bringing them home .....from the puppies point of view gives a whole new perspective to the reader. For those who have shared their lives with a Sheltie this is a sweet reminder of their ability to climb inside your heart and love you, your whole life. Nice tribute to the breed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Precious Reading, March 23, 2005
This review is from: Rowdy: The Sheltie (Paperback)
Rowdy the Sheltie was one of the cutest books I have ever read! Rowdy is so precious you just want to pick him up and hug him and never put him down! From the opening line to the last paragraph, you are drawn into Rowdy's world. And the artwork really adds to the whole. I also have the little soft toy of Rowdy and I held him the whole time I was reading. You just want to kiss him and hug him and never let him go! I sure hope there is a sequal to this first book!! I'm looking forward to another day with the grown-up Rowdy! Thanks, Brenda Tatro and Daryl Wamego for bringing this precious little baby puppy to life for the rest of us!!
