    About this ebook

    Life isn't always easy for Tasse the Shih Tzu. Sometimes she has problems she doesn't know how to solve.  In The Monster Dog: Life's Lessons Learned, Tasse shares what she's learned from her problems: to be considerate, to be a good listener, to share and be welcoming, to forgive, and more.

         

    Beautifully illustrated, this collection of stories will delight young children, help develop their problem-solving skills, and foster their empathy for others.  Suitable for ages 4 to 8 years.

         

          

    REVIEW

    "Tasse takes readers through her adventures in learning important life lessons in a fun and easy to understand way. Children will relate to Tasse's experiences and the stories open up wonderful opportunities for discussions between reader and child."
