My review of:

Wooffer, by Betty Fasig

This well written little book holds many surprises in the lessons the animals on Ms. Fasig’s farm learn from one another. From an abandoned dog to a seven legged spider, the animals on Wooffer’s farm live their lives in harmony by resolving their differences and coming to the aid of one another. When dilemmas come to the any of the creatures dwelling there, Wooffer steps up as the hero and finds solutions with the help of his Mom, Ms Fasig.

Ms. Fasig writes in a style that is easily read and appeals to young and old alike. She gives voice to each of the creatures, reminding us that even the smallest animals have lives and problems not unlike humans that they must solve. This reader found Wooffer to be a refreshing change of pace, putting human suffering in perspective and fading the world’s woes into the background, if only for a short while. I was sorry to have finished this little volume and look forward to any future offerings by this author.

Dear Zada,
Thank you for the lovely review of Wooffer! You can use words like delightful, wonderful and charming any time you want to! In fact, I find them three of the most wonderful, delightful and charming words in the dictionary.
Love,
Betty, Wooffer, Old Agnes, Matilda, Mr. A. Corn, Ho Chi and all the rest of us.

Betty sent me a lovely colored pencil drawing done by Julie Larose, author of Discovering The Long Way Home, from a photo I had sent to her. It is wonderful. I wanted to post it on the Published Author Board, but I never could figure out how to do it. If you know how to post a photograph on there, would you try to post this picture for me and note that it was drawn by Julie Larose. It is a picture of all three of my dogs. Left to right, Sara, Jazzmin and Wooffer.

Betty, I am sorry but I have been unable to upload it to 'servimg', and can't figure out any other way to post it. I am at a loss. I even tried a copy and paste, which did not work, obviously. Maybe Shelagh or one of the others knows how to get it posted for us.
