The Rubber-Legged Ducky

John G. Keller

Harcourt Children's Books, 2008

Everyone is Special
Watch out what you eat when you are expecting! Mama duck nibbled a rubber band along with a clump of grass before giving birth. When she hatched her brood, the fifth duckling bounced rather than waddled, and cried, "Bing-boing" instead of the typical "Quack, quack." This delightful tale is all about being different, or special with true potential, as only a mother could declare. Five's rubbery ...

What? You don't think Faith is for the Dogs? Well, laugh & learn with Robert Short and you'll sit up and beg for more!
You've just got to smile at this brainstorm by the godfather of the "Gospel According to ..." genre, Robert L. Short. Bob's the guy who published the original "The Gospel According to Peanuts" in the mid 1960s -- and wound up selling more than 10 million copies as this somewhat shocking idea (at the time) got people chuckling and nodding their heads. Well, like me -- and millions of other ...

Mea Culpa says author
One copyeditor's mistake in turning craisins into raisins does not a bad book make. Please know that we understand dried cranberries are healthy - actually a part of several highly rated dry dog foods, and raisins are bad for dogs. But we hope you won't let this one mistake stop you from buying this book which Barbara Bradley and I wrote. My dogs are healthier than ever, and Barb's added three ...

TFH Publications, 2007

Not for Little Dogs Only
This book is a fountain of fun things to do with your small dog, but the activities can be arranged for larger dogs also. With small dogs, these can be done indoors; some of them would probably work better outside for larger breeds. Besides fun activities, there's a wealth of information on traveling, shopping, dining and other outside-the-house things to do. It's a great book to have on ...

Love is a 4 Legged Word
I absolutely love this book and can't stop talking about it. Mr. Leeds was inspired to revolutionize the pet hospitality industry back in 1970 when his pet ocelot died while being boarded due to neglect. He investigated and found conditions unsatisfactory. Mr. Leeds believed in his idea and went forth never minding the naysayers. He met with Ray Kroc and together started a dream come true! ...

What a GREAT book!
I've been looking for a book like this for a LONG time! My initial motivation behind purchasing this book came out of concern of commercial pet foods. Have you ever looked at the ingredients label on your pet's store-bought food? It's pretty bad. After buying this book, I couldn't be more pleased with all it has to offer pet lovers. It's GREAT for all people who are concerned about what goes ...

The Two-Legged Creature: An Otoe Story

Anna Lee Walters

Northland Pub, 1993

The artwork in this book is what really carries it off.
The artwork by Carol Bowles is incredibly wonderful. It is what brings the story to life. The written word is at times boring. My children love the paintings so very much and can now tell the story just by seeing the illustrations. I hope we can see more of Ms. Bowles work in other story books. She is a very imaginative illustrator with a sense of spirit.
