Tell Me the Story Again About How You Rescued Me is the winner of the 2018 Parents’ Favorite Products Award from the Tillywig Award.
The story is generic enough so that ANY pet owner or family will adore this tale! The story is told a bit deadpan to set up for the hilarious dog photos (named dogs with super-great expressions) to butt-in and in dialogue balloons say things like, “YOU DIDN’T PICK ME?!” and "I LOVE this story!"
The witty repartee goes back and forth until all is made clear! Not only is this clever story and a great read-aloud for class or home, the author has created a custom version of the story whereby purchasers can download their own dog’s photo for the cover, and have the dog’s name appear in the book. In both editions, there’s also a page to add specifics about their rescue story which include the date the dog was adopted, where you adopted the dog from and other notes. There is also a cute final Awwwww-moment poem, and a praise dedication to those who rescue dogs.
School and public libraries may need multiple hardcover copies for what will be high-circulation, and any rescue family will want a book for their coffee table and bedtime reading, to the kids and to the dog!
