Today is National Change a Pet’s Life Day and what better day to celebrate than the launch of a book featuring amazing pets!

About three and a half years ago, I reviewed Peggy Frezon’s book, Faithfully Yours. (You can read that review, HERE.)

I’m back today, to talk about her newest book, “The Dog in the Dentist Chair.”

The Dog in the Dentist Chair is a collection of short stories geared towards elementary and early middle school aged children.It is a book about animals, hope and love.

It is a book about all kinds of animals,  not just dogs, but also bunnies, pigs, cats, horses, birds and even camels and of the many ways these amazing animals interact with and help people.

I have to be honest, I loved this book.

The stories are short, but well written and in my opinion, completely relatable to children.

I love how every story explained what disability the service animal helped, and how the person with the disability related to the service animal.

I love how there was a home-life story about the animal, what they liked to do, favorite things to eat, etc.

I love how the book approached sensitive topics, such as autism and bullying.

I can picture this book at a child’s bedside or in a classroom and the stories being used as a starting point to open a dialog about difficult topics.

My granddaughter just turned eight and I cannot wait to get a hard copy I can send to her.

Disclaimer, I received an electronic copy of The Dog in the Dentist Chair in exchange for promoting this book.

The Dog in the Dentist Chair is written by Peggy Frezon. It is a book about hope, love and the amazing bond animals have with humans. It is available today, from Paraclete Press .

Oh, and one more thing.  There really is a dog in the dentist’s chair.
