This is another little gem of a book by Suzanna Lynn!

In this particular book, Buddy teaches us a couple of lessons. Buddy reminisces about being adopted. He looks different than his siblings. He is blue, and they are all tan. The pups begin noticing people coming to the farm and looking at them. His mother explains that they will soon go to their forever homes and have even more adventures. As time passed, his siblings got adopted, and one family noted that they wanted a tan dog like all the others, not “the blue one.” Buddy’s feelings are hurt, and he thinks he will never find his forever home. However, a family arrives after driving several hours and takes him home, and it’s everything he ever hoped for.

Lynn does a beautiful job of explaining that everyone is created as unique and special. She also shows that waiting can be challenging, but with patience, life can turn out better than we ever imagined.

This is another book full of engaging young readers with a very positive message.

Another cute story with a great message! Lynn definitely knows how to capture these little readers with adorable illustrations, meaningful connections and keeping a positive outlook throughout. Even as adults, these are great reminders as we get lost in our own worlds but as parents, we need to show and role model these qualities to our little ones so they can be mindful and patient as things all have their own way of working out. Highly recommended for preschool children and even those in Sunday School or special church programming groups as the very ending mentions Biblical verse to connect the story to.

This is the second book in the Buddy the Blue Corgi series, and it is just as cute as the first one! I loved the first book celebrating uniqueness while this one focuses on being patient. Buddy and his family learn about adoption and their forever homes away from the farm. They’re anxious but soon become excited for new adventures. Buddy isn’t feeling special as he’s the last pup left. Will he end up with his forever family, or will he be the only one who stays at the farm with his momma? The illustrations are beautiful, colorful, and they really add depth to the story. My kiddos are 8 and 12 years old, and they absolutely adored this book the entire way through. The life lesson of patience really helped settle both of their nerves and started a great conversation between us. I think this would make a great addition to a classroom, library, or even at home!

This was another good installment by this author. The illustrations were engaging for the younger readers (or listeners if doing it as a read aloud). The message is very important as patience is a difficult concept for younger minds to understand. This is also a nice refresher for older minds, too! I would recommend this in a classroom environment as a teachable resource.

This charming children’s book follows Buddy, a lovable blue corgi, as he learns valuable lessons about patience and perseverance. We love reading about the different life journeys buddy goes on, always very interesting to read about. This book is not only entertaining but also has great life lessons. The story effectively conveys the important message that patience is key to achieving our goals. Through Buddy’s adventures, children are encouraged to embrace the process of waiting for the perfect moment for you. Im was so happy he found his forever home sooo adorable.Looking forward to reading more 🥰

Good Things Take Time is part of the Buddy the Blue Corgi series. My son and I really enjoy these books. The puppy is adorable and his cat brothers are too. Buddy tells us a little about his history growing up on a farm before being adopted. We see several times Buddy not being picked and how sad he gets. There is even a page with his big ol puppy dog eyes! But Momma says it’s just not his time, and the book had a happily ever after.

This is the second book I have read to my granddaughter about Buddy the corgi. This little book talks about being adopted and having patience for your time. Such a great message. The illustrations and colors in this book are as fantastic as the 1st book. We can’t wait to read more of these books!

This is a sweet story that extols the virtue of patience. This is the story of how the title character got his forever family. I like this series of books because I have a senior dog named Buddy. Buddy is ten years old, and recently became a part of my family. I like to imagine that he has had adventures similar to the title character.

The illustrations are beautiful and the story is so sweet. It was perfect for my kids, age-wise, (3& 6). It shows kids that waiting and having patience isn’t a bad thing, all good things come when it’s time and to be happy for others when their good things come. I love how this story is about a real pup and gives some info on him. There is a part on the last page that is a passage from the bible, and while it is about what the story is trying to teach the child if you are not religious (or a different religion) this book might not be for you.

Oh, so important. Everyone is made special, and everyone has their special family out there waiting for them. Patience while you wait is one of the hardest things to do in this world, but the good things take time, but they always find you, eventually.

This is the second book in this adorable series and it did not disappoint. We get to see Buddy and his siblings placed for adoption. While all of his siblings have been adopted, Buddy has not been and doesn’t understand why. The story has a great message for youth reading the story that sometimes you just have to be patient and trust that you will get what you deserve. Buddy continues to be a very sweet corgi and a great way to teach children in a way that is both fun and engaging.

This book has fantastic illustrations and a wonderful tale about a Corgi who is still waiting to be adopted after his siblings have already been adopted. Really young kids may not understand it all in the first couple readings but if they are read this book often enough then they will learn and understand about patience.

In this story Buddy is different than his siblings because he’s blue and they are tan. He thought nothing of it until the time came for adoption. He became sad and feared he’d never be adopted. Finally a family made a long trip to get him and he had everything he needed. As the title says some things take time!

Buddy’s brothers and sisters are all getting adopted, yet Buddy still waits. He finds himself the last puppy left, but finally gets adopted. This book discusses the importance of having patience and knowing that good things are coming. Another cute Bible verse connects it all together at the end.

This is such a beautifully written book about the importance of patience!! Buddy is seeing his brothers and sisters going away from the farm. People come and look at them everyday. Momma explains that it’s time for them to go to their forever homes. One day, Buddy looks around and he’s the only pup left in his litter. His mom very lovingly explains that his time hasn’t come yet.

The illustrations are very colorful and well done! The story does come from a Biblical basis and there is one Bible verse quoted within at the end. This is a great book for any library and I highly recommend it, especially if you know someone struggling with patience.

Buddy and his siblings notice some strangers coming to the farm and looking at them. His mom explains it is time for them to be adopted to a new family. Buddy anxiously waits for his new family after being overlooked.

This was another wonderful story in this series. I like the way the writer has the emotions for Buddy to be relatable for children. You are engaged from the beginning, a really delightful series.

This was a really perfect book for my kids to learn that waiting can be hard. I know my kids are still learning this and this book was great to show them that waiting can be frustrating and that its hard when its not right away. This book shows patience and understanding that things take time. My kids really love the illustrations of book, and it goes very well with the story. These stories of Buddy are amazing, and my kids absolutely love them. Buddy is waiting for his forever home and my kids resonated with this due to our dogs too. This is a great book for kids to learn how things are to take time and we need to have patents sometimes.

These books (Buddy the Blue Corgi Series) are such cute and fun books. They each have a wonderful lesson and they are great for kids! Kids are taught many ways and I believe that books are one way that tend to be missed out on early on. In this book Buddy, a blue corgi is waiting to get adopted. He’s a little scared at first, but he loves the idea of going to a forever home. One by one his brothers and sisters get adopted. He’s left feeling unwanted and without his siblings playing just isn’t the same. One day a man and woman show up and they are so happy to find him. They drove from another state, hours away just for him! Arriving to his new home he meets their three kids and their two cats. He learned that his family just didn’t find him yet. He was worried for nothing. Waiting can be hard. Such a wonderful book! I can’t wait to read the others with my kiddos. I got this for a nine year old, but I really think that younger kids would not only love these books, but they would benefit from the lesson in it. Grab all of these books!! You will not regret it. Wonderful for first libraries, bedtime stories, and kindergarteners!

Good Things Take Time (Buddy the Blue Corgi Series) by Suzanna Lynn. This is such a sweet series for kids. Its a story of Buddy the Corgi and how he came to be adopted. He is terrified no one will want him and all his brothers and sisters will be picked and he will be left alone. Buddy is the only Blue Corgi out of the bunch and that worries him too, he’s different. Buddy is adopted and he goes to live with 2 cat siblings and a whole family that is crazy about him. Buddy is the sweetest and this series is as well. Its a great series for elementary kids and younger and it would be especially good for any child that is adopted or feels different from others. These books have great pictures and there is always a Christian element that I love. It also teaches kids that everything is not going to happen this instant, that some things take time! Such a great read for kids. I’m buying this whole series for my new Grandbaby to have when he gets older!

This book is an adorable way to teach kids that not everything is instant gratification. The story introduces you to Buddy, a blue Corgi and explains his adoption story. This book is great for all kids, but I could definitely see it being especially meaningful to a child just getting their first pet or a child who is adopted at an age that they are old enough to understand its meaning. Buddy is an adorable puppy and the only blue Corgi in his whole litter. Once he’s adopted, he has two cat siblings and a whole family that loves him. I would recommend this for any elementary age child, or younger, though even as an adult, I enjoyed it myself. The illustrations are adorable, and the back even includes pictures of the real Buddy for a bonus. This book is part of the Buddy the Corgi series, but can absolutely be written as a stand-alone.

Good Things Take Time is the second book in the Buddy the Blue Corgi Series. Another wonderfully written children’s book that children of any age can enjoy. My six year old son loved this book and kept saying it’s ok buddy your forever family is coming very soon. Sometimes being patient is hard. Good Things come to those wait. Buddy was starting to get sad and felt unwanted but he stayed calm and his forever family came. We loved this book and the colorful illustrations help to bring the story to life. My son and I highly recommend reading this book and look forward to reading more from this Author.

Buddy was a pup from a litter of 5, and as they all grew, the time came for them to be adopted to new families. One by one, buddy’s siblings were chosen and left his farm. Buddy starts to blame himself and wonder why nobody wants him. His mama reassured him that his perfect family just hadn’t come yet, but they will. Eventually he gets his family and finds out that they traveled extra just to get him!

Although we seemed to have read these books out of series order, we can honestly say that this is becoming one of our favourites. This book was another brilliant addition to the series. For me, I loved the focus on making sure kids know how special they are. It seems to be a recurring conversation I am having to my 6 year old and I think reading this book helped to reinforce some of the things I had been saying.
As with the other books, my kids instantly connect with Buddy and the other characters. They really enjoyed the story and the illustrations that went with the adventure. This author has obviously created a strong series and we are looking forward to reading more.

She explains that it’s just not his time to be patient. I really loved that God was included in this book.

Good Things Take Time, literally, things that mean the most to us are never immediately attainable, and sometimes that causes us to get frustrated, nervous, or scared, but it all works out in the end. I love how the characters are based off of real life characters. I also enjoy that these are good, wholesome, Christian stories with Bible verses that help teach children as well as the wonderful lessons in each book.
