This picture book is designed to encourage primary students to read. It is based on the true story of an extraordinary dog. Froo was a Great Pyrenees who was born a dwarf and deaf. She participated in Canadian Kennel Club Obedience and Rally and Therapy trials, and still did very well in spite of the fact her training was imparted by hand signals. The story's narration, written by the dog herself, touches on the history of the breed, early training, and therapy work. We were invited to hospitals, care homes and colleges. When Froo qualified as a Therapy Paws of Canada reading dog, we provided reading services to both the Halton and Peel Boards of Education, mostly with primary students but sometimes with high school students as well. Froo was a great favourite with everybody. We read with individual students as well as groups. I did not tell anyone she was deaf.This book is dedicated to any dogs who need to be re-homed, and to all primary students who are learning to read. Especially, this is tribute to a truly memorable friend.
