Your children will love Tucker who most certainly is just like every child that reads about him. Heart warming and comforting as well as educational.
I know children who will not go to bed at night without their Tucker book.
Tucker is currently living in the Pacific Northwest with his family, loves children, enjoys camping, hiking, walking, winter sports, chipmunks, cats, other dogs and trips to the dog park.
A cute pet animal book, Tucker truly is, "Not quite like most other dogs", and he himself, through his charming personality, inspired the book, "THE DOG THAT HAD TO HAVE A PILLOW".
This is the first book in the adventure series, THE ADVENTURES OF TUCKER and follows Tucker and Emma through their first meeting and many situations that teach us who they are and who they are together.
The book is designed for children to get involved by periodically asking them, "What do you think". This allows children to state the obvious answer that is portrayed in the illustrations. This gives children the opportunity to interact with the story and provides some good laughs for parents while reading with their children.
THE ADVENTURES OF TUCKER are stories based on the true-life events of 'TUCKER TIBERIUS "FLY BOY" THE FIRST'.
At the release of this first edition the 2nd edition, "TUCKER GOES CAMPING" is already in the works and will be released shortly after this publication. The 3rd book in the series will be, "TUCKER MEETS A FRIEND" and more adventures are certainly on the way. The adventures of Tucker are designed as a "bridge book" series to assist young readers an opportunity to advance from simple picture books to easy reader novels by, still incorporating some pictures, while at the same time introducing more opportunity to simply read. This change should assist young readers to move more easily into more complex novels while allowing them to begin the process of visualizing scenes without the need of Illustrations thus enhancing their ability to read, their reading enjoyment and encouraging their imagination to grow. The Tucker stories are adventurous and naturally fun. They are based on the actual true-life events in the life of Tucker. The hope of the author is that reading this series will help inspire a deep love of reading that will last a lifetime. Reading has always been and will always be, a wonderful way visit other places or simply to help get beyond the cares and worries of life if only for a short time and, take the reader to new places in the imagination.
THE ADVENTURES OF TUCKER is designed as a first children's bridge book series between picture books and easy reader novels. It allows early readers to step up to the next reading level with ease while quickly helping to build their confidence in their ability to read on their own.
