A tasty story to read with children over the holidays.
A children’s book author, and a former U.S. Airforce veteran writes a book about facing challenges by cooperating with friends. It is a perfect read for the holidays when you have young family members visiting. Readers can see photos of real truffle sniffing dogs and learn about truffle hunting at the end of the story! Truffle stuffing, anyone?
Peri and Tubs (a pig and a dog) are best friends who spend their days sniffing and digging in the rich soil. This year the Truffle Dog Championship is threatened by a rule change. Can the friends work together to win the day? On their own, they’re at a disadvantage, but, in the end, true friendship finds a way.
