P.A.L. Puppy Storytime

"PAL" means Positive Attitudes
for Life. We all have attitudes, we all
have choices. The Pal Puppy series has a
mission for all young children: to become more aware of choices. Many problems
can be solved by using
"common sense," but common sense isn't all that common. It is something that needs to be developed,
starting at a young age. It involves
choices. It involves having the proper attitude.
As an Author, I want young
children to have a safe place to learn an important lesson in life: Believe in yourself,
make good choices. And don't rely on your peers to make important decisions for
you. This lesson become even more important as the child gets older. Pal Puppy
stories can help lay the ground work for using a good, positive attitude
for life.
I believe my stories can serve
parents, teachers, and other role models as a kind of reference book for
explaining important topics that need a special touch to enhance
understanding. "Crooked" and "Lovey Dovey" represent the "pro and con" viewpoints to be considered when PAL Puppy
makes a decision. PAL Puppy always ends
each story by making a responsible decision using his own "PAL Puppy good sense." As children go
through the decision-making process with him, they take the good
decision-making skills as their own, to keep for a lifetime.
My hope is that children and
adults will find these stories entertaining as they explore some of the complex
issues of childhood development together. Please enjoy these stories, and use
them to open meaningful conversation.
