Jake the Growling Dog Shares His Trail by Samantha Shannon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jake the Growling Dog loves running his trail daily and meeting up with his friends that he shares his trail with. One day, Jake and friends find strange tracks on their trail and are very afraid of the unknown marks. Jake and his friends go back to the trail and eventually come across another dog whose name is Tuck. After making friends with Tuck and playing for a while, Jake realizes that his new friend Tuck is making the strange tracks due to his missing leg. In the end, Jake and his friends learn that being different in physical appearance is not something to fear and doesn’t change the inside or basic make up of a being. Great story about acceptance of those who do not appear as we do. Cute story and likeable creatures. Great lesson for our children today in a story that is easy to relate to and the discussion and projects given at the end of the book are a great way to help them understand the lesson of the story.
