Book Description
Lots of good times, you have to take the good with the bad, and it takes all kinds of people to make this world go around. I've looked into the eyes of the poor. I've looked into the souls of the rich. I've traveled across this country all alone with no contact with the people that I love. I have been happy, and I have been sad and on my own. I've seen people laugh, and I've seen people cry. This book is dedicated to family and friends that I have lost along the way in life. This book is the story of my life--the life and death and rebirth of my mind.

Please Take Me For a Walk
Author: Susan Gal
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0375985565
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 41
Book Description
Please Take Me for a Walk is a celebration of dogs and kids and community. The book stars a very persuasive pup pleading with his best friend—the reader!—to take him for a walk. He recounts all the fun things they can see and do: chase squirrels in the yard, greet neighbors on their block, visit the shopkeepers downtown, swing by the schoolyard, and then run and play in the park. The dog run at the park is filled with all kinds of amazing purebreds and mutts, and our puppy wants them all to see "my best friend and me." Susan Gal uses this story of a dog's best walk ever to catalog all the favorite places in a child's world. She starts in the house and the yard, then widens her scope to the block, the neighborhood, downtown, and the park. And she captures the magical way the people of a community can be brought together through their pets. The dog's enthusiastic voice and eagerness to go out walking will resonate with any dog owner. And Susan Gal's artwork is so enticing and adorable it will have even confirmed cat lovers heading for the pound! Happy walking, everyone!
