Someday I would love to write a children’s book about collies. It’s something I’ve thought about pursuing for a few years, but haven’t actually sat down and tried it yet. A Facebook acquaintance gave it a try, and I’ve been anticipating the book’s completion, and quickly purchased two copies when the book went on sale on Amazon. One copy was for me, and one is a Christmas gift for my grandchildren.
The book is called Mary & Emmett, A Journey Through the Dark. It was written by Amanda Kaminski, and has beautiful illustrations by Vanessa Ilnitsky. Since I haven’t done a book review in a long time, I thought this would be an excellent choice to add to my series of reviews, since it is about a collie, our favorite subject.
The book has a sweet story, about a young girl lost in the woods. A collie comes along, and helps her find her way through the dark. The charming story and stunning illustrations are perfect together, and capture that special relationship between a child and a dog. If you are looking for a gift for a child, or if you collect collie stories, I recommend giving this book a try. You can find it on Amazon, by clicking here.
