REVIEWS

Denise, a teacher & administration staff, says,

“I just finished reading your book.  I loved it.  It definitely had me smiling.  I could see it in a school reading textbook.  There are a lot of elements a teacher could use.”

Carol, a grandmother, & Elise, her 6 year-old granddaughter entering first grade, says,

“While she reads at a second-grade level, too many references went over her head and she gave up.  I then read thru page 18 to her and explained things as we went along. Later, as we were discussing what is happening tomorrow, she reminded me that we have to read more of Gus' Tails.”

Cole, a 10 year-old grandson entering 5th grade, says,

"Heart-warming, never going to forget tales that are perfect for any being.”

He found the book entertaining and added that it was funny where you least expected it. When the author asked him if he should do another book, Cole said he is "looking forward to volume 2."

He recommends this book for ages 9-12.

Hank and Queenie’s Mom says,

"A delightful story for all ages about a beloved golden doodle’s adventures and his colorful reactions to his furry tailed friends and foes.”

Catherine, a grandmother, says,

“I bought this book for my grandkids—it’s really a neat book. Nicely done.”

Suzanne, a grandmother, says,

“Our grandkids love their new book.”

Janice says,

“Great book!  Author has a knack for humorous story telling!”
