5.0 out of 5 stars Scottie-Robbie: Inspiration for All, April 3, 2000

By A Customer

"Scottie-Robbie, The Story of a True Champion", by Edith S. Weigand, is a heart-tugging, smile-making, inspirational story for young and old alike Scottie lovers, and all those who have ever had the privilege of being owned by a four-legged furkid. His story of "rescue", "recovery" and making the most of what life presents is simple, yet truly remarkable. This little Scottie Boy handles each situation with charm and resilience, and a positive attitude, that we humans can admire, and learn so much from. His story will make one laugh with delight, and weep with sadness, that one such beautiful soul could not remain with us longer, to show us how to make the most of each day, do our best at work and play, and help others find happiness, nomatter what obstacles or limitations may come our way. This is a story that children and adults can enjoy and learn from. We are never too old to be inspired, uplifted, and reminded that a positive attitude and loving spirit for all living things, can make our world brighter and life well worth living to the fullest! This is a story and lesson to carry in one's heart forever!

5.0 out of 5 stars Scottie-Robbie:The Story of a True Champion, July 22, 2002

By A Customer

Such a fun book to read. My eight year old, twelve year old and I all took turns reading it. I enjoyed it as much as them. It would be a wonderful chapter book for a child to do a book report about. The pictures which are actual photographs are great. This is a book that will find a permanent home on my bookshelf. It is the type of book you'll want to read again. I hope Edith Weigand continues writing about her scotties.
