Animals? I’m in!!!
Kailana is hosting this wonderful challenge to read 3-5 books about animals between Sept 20 – Feb. 26 (see the blog for explanation of the dates.)
Instead of a button, she asked us to post a picture of a pet of ours. This is Essence and she passed away July 2006. She was such a great dog. I only knew her for 3 years but she was such a lovable friend. She was beyond gentle with my baby and all she ever wanted from people was attention. Petting, talking to and a butt pat or two. She could climb trees and jump high and just saying the letter K made her think you were bringing out a Kong for her to play with. I love you Essence!
Okay now on to my books.
1. Marley and Me by John Grogan (also for A to Z challenge)
2. Dog Years: A Memoir by Mark Doty (also for In Their Shoes Challenge)
3. Divine Canine by The Monks of New Skete
4. My Life in Dog Years by Gary Paulsen
5. The Boy Who Spoke Dog by Clay Morgan
