Celebrating the Human Canine Connection

If you are in Davenport, IA; Tilamook, OR; or Endeavor, IL, and you are the librarian in charge of  acquiring new books, then you, like hundereds of other librarians around the country are aware of the Cooperative Authors Group.

Four Independent small press dog book publishers  who have banded together...four authors who share an awareness of the joy, loyalty and love that dogs bring to people of all ages.

Each book is based on personal experience...

Born Without A Tail, by C. Ariel Wulff, takes you into a life where dogs and cats that were once lost or unwanted always find a caring home...a dynamic world unto itself where joy, love and the unexpected are always found...imagine a home with several dogs and cats -- a world with unique rewards, and heartfelt surprises.

Frankie, the Walk'n Roll Dog

, by Barb Teschel, is a book based on the courage of a small dog who recovered from a paralyzing accident and lives to inspire both children and adults...the charming illustrations capture Frankie's journey with warm appeal...Frankie and Barb often visit schools, leaving the children with a moving and delightful experience.

Every Rescued Dog Has A Tale, Stories From the Dog Rescue Railroad, by Deborah Eades, takes the reader into a world of dogs in danger and pain because of human cruelty, who are rescued and taken to a new and caring life...the stories and photos, often of rides into the unknown, are all different; the constant is the loving satisfaction that Deb shares in these touching, heart-warming stories.

 

 

Planet Of The Dogs, by Robert McCarty is the story of the first time dogs come down to planet earth to teach people about unconditional loyalty and love and to help the farmers of Green Valley turn back the invading Stone City Warriors in a non-violent way. This is Volume 1 in the Planet of the Dogs book series, for children 6-12 and dog lovers of all ages.

All of these books share a belief in the extraordinary qualities of dogs...the loyalty and love that has no limits.

All of these authors have experienced the joy that dogs bring to the lives of people.

The books of the Cooperative Authors Group are an affirmation and a celebration of the Human Canine Connection.
