I was informed that a 5th grade classroom in Orange County is using Jetta's book as a reader. I'm so happy! That was one of my goals: to have children enjoy the book. Another woman in Idaho is using the book for home-schooling. The other day I was walking with the dogs and I saw a ten-year old boy who goes to school in Cayucos who enjoyed Bud's hamming it up at our assembly there. And he said that he's looking for the book. I told him it's in the school library. He said: "I could buy a book of my own", so I told him to ask his mom, and that any time he wanted to read the book for free, he could come by my house, but to let him mom know, of course. That made my day!
Way to go, Jetta! You're going countrywide to tell people about service dogs and the importance of reading!
