Riley's Bow-wow Blast (Animal Gambill) - Tapa dura

When Riley the dog is adopted into a new home, he loves his new eight-year-old owner who sings all the time, especially after she helps him overcome his fear of thunderstorms.

"Charming, entertaining and educational for all ages. Singin' Sally teaches all of us that there are solutions to problems both large and small. She also teaches the true meaning of commitment, and that even with our imperfections, we are fine. The message Singin' Sally conveys through her positive and fun approach can be a lesson for each of us, young and old." -Sharon L. Mayes, President and Founder of the Shamrock Foundation "In 'Riley's Bow-Wow Blast', author Animal Gambill tackles a subject not often discussed with children - the plight of animals in shelters. With eye-pleasing illustrations and lyrical copy, Gambill catches a child's attention and natural interest in animals. In doing so, she subtly teaches a lesson in humane responsibility towards our canine and feline companions. Parents should put this book on their child's reading list even if the family does not own a pet." -Lexiann Grant, award-winning pet-writer and author "A delightful, fun-loving metaphor for children struggling with worry and anxiety. The 'plan' can be used in variations to provide solutions for any person (or animal) in a distressing situation. A prime example of how the love of an animal can have far-reaching effects." -Christopher K. Peters, M.D., Medical Director of the Ackerly Child and Adolescent Inpatient Unit; Assistant Professor of the University of Louisville's Psychiatry Department "A touching reminder of the profound comfort and joy that animals and people can share with each other, if we just open our hearts and give each other the chance." -Diane Leigh, co-author of "One at a Time: A Week in an American Animal Shelter"
