Buddy Finds a Home

Picture
Rachel Edmiston has written a lovely book about a little scraggly, scruffy dog who wants a home.  When he does not get picked by visitors and all of his brothers and sisters do, he decides to take things in his own paws.  He goes in search of a warm and comfortable home in which to live.  Buddy Finds a Home is the quest by the little puppy as he looks for his ideal family.

    “...However, Buddy did not only want a home; he wanted a boy.  A boy he could run and play with outside.  A boy he could cuddle at night as they drifted off to sleep.  A boy he could love each and every day of his life.”

    Children will find it a fun and exciting book to read.  Parents will be able to use it as a tool to teach tolerance and the fact that what we look like is not what makes us a good friend.
    You have always heard about the little dog that follows the little boy or girl home and the plea of “Can I keep him?”  Buddy follows a different person home who makes the plea for him.  You must read the book to find out who this mysterious person is.
    Buddy Finds a Home is the 2011 NTBF Award Winner for children’s books, presented at the North Texas Book Festival on April 16, 2011 at the Center for the Visual Arts in Denton, Texas.
