I thought I would come back and share another book from Doctor Olkin series which I received for this review. Doctor Owlkin and The H.O.M.E. team Celebrating Our Differences and Diversity with Inclusion Book 4- Goldie by Dr. Terri Howard-Hughes.
Charlie and I were a little upset to finish Doctor Owlkin and the series which we hope Author Teri Howard- Hughes and Clint Hughes comes out with more books in this series. Inside this book all the illustrations were created by Bijan Samaddar. I can’t wait to see if he creates other books we can check out in the future.
In Doctor Owlkin and The H.O.M.E. team Celebrating Our Differences and Diversity with Inclusion Book 4- Goldie. we meet Goldie another Dog that if Charlie and I could have we would have brought home with us. Just look at the cover and all the animals who look so happy to be together. Like one big family I would like to be part of. How about you
Before I share more of my thoughts on this children’s book with you I would like to know the Authors gives back to My Possibilities which I hope you take the time to check out as soon as possible. The take time to examine every picture which has a hidden heart for you to find. Charlie and I will be looking for them in our Art Class and drawing what the heart looked like and where it was found out. Would you like to join Charlie and I on our Scavenger Hunt?
Goldie lives with Mrs. Burke but before this Goldie lived in a shelter just like my dog Pheobie did. Goldie is a Service Animal and we learn where she went to school which I would like to take Charlie’s Dog Bear to as well as Pheobie and Annie. As you learn with Goldie who only has 3 1/2 legs you can do anything you want as long as you try. Just like the Little Engine Who Could.
Mrs Burke begins to have trouble getting out of bed, so Goldie does more for her. Mrs. Burke waits on the bench in the park for Goldie to come back. Weasles arrive and start bullying Goldie. The Weasles take off with Mrs. Burke but a Cat helps Goldie rescue her. next a Rabbit appears who gets rid of one of the Weasles.
More of the H.O.M.E. team shows up and also the father to the Weasels and before you ask what happens next I am not going to tell you. You need to pick up your own copy of Doctor Owlkin and The H.O.M.E. team Celebrating Our Differences and Diversity with Inclusion Book 4- Goldie which you should share with anyone who has been bullied.
Book 4 – Goldie
Goldie was born with her right forearm missing but still was able to become a support dog. She lives with a squirrel, Mrs. Burke, as her caretaker. One day when Mrs. Burke and Goldie go to the park some weasels grab Mrs. Burke and take her into a hole in the ground. Goldie runs to save her as The H.O.M.E. Team arrives to help.
Will the bullies beat Goldie and The H.O.M.E. Team or will the Goldie and The H.O.M.E. Team outwit them?
