My Dog is Famous!

Posted on January 23, 2011 by Jen

Last summer, our English bulldog, Oliver, participated in a photo shoot for a new easy-reader called Rupert Likes to Play.  Essentially, the book is about a dog named Rupert who likes to play with different things like shoes, a rope and a red ring.  Most of all, though, he likes to play with his friend Oliver!

Oliver is featured in several of the photographs which is very exciting!  He is such a dog model.  ;)   Rupert is actually our friends Bill and Cate’s dog; the author is Cate’s mom!

I just thought that it would be fun to share this book on a snowy and cold Sunday.  If you are a parent or teacher of preschool/kindergarten students and want to order this book, check out the Hameray Publishing Group website.

About Jen

For as long as I can remember, I have loved to read. I have always viewed words as having a magical quality-able to transport, illuminate and inspire. I was able to parlay this love of reading into a career as a language arts teacher and am able to encourage students every day to find books that “speak” to them. I decided to blog about the books I read because books are meant to be shared and discussed. 🙂

      I think he is pretty adorable too! The problem is that he knows he is handsome. Our vet says that he suffers from “Spoiled Dog Syndrome.” Ha.

      He was actually in my wedding – we had a tux custom-made for him on ETSY. We just love him so much. :)

    Ahhhhh look at your pup! He is famous, as he should be because he is just too cute! I would blow that up and frame it like a ridiculously proud puppy parent:)

    I’m trying to cut down on reading to my dog because it’s just sad, but I will have to read her this one if I can find it. Congratulations!
