Description
Who said dogs can't write books?!? Written in December of 2020, this heartwarming story was created to help open the door to more honest and heartfelt conversations with our little ones. Jake’s story helps children navigate through the pandemic while being helpful, humorous and, ultimately, hopeful.
Written in "first doggy," children can easily relate to Jake's experiences of 2020 as he shifts to online learning, is forced to stay home more often and dearly misses his friends. Jake's story helps children learn they are not alone in this big world of emotions. Both children and adults alike get a kick out of finding Jake's squirrel friend, Stuart, throughout the book. This is a feel-good type of book and a keepsake to share with future generations about this historic time we are all living through.
