Sometimes the biggest things come in the smallest packages.
Harper-an endearing puppy, as well as a small package, delivers something big indeed. Harper gives all her love all the time to those she encounters, no matter what and just because. We see Harper love when someone is sad, when friends are over, when squirrels chatter, when it’s time to get up, when it’s time to come home. Harper illustrates the power of unconditional regard and unending adoration in the fabric of a child’s life
Through charming illustrations and gentle words, Harper the Love Puppy lets you know that you’re loved from morning to night just because you are who you are. Harper’s story lets children know that they are enough. They deserve all the love and acceptance in the world for no other reason than being themselves.
Reviews
Remember that family pet of your youth that was always glad to see you and seemed to love you no matter what? Harper the Love Puppy is about such a dog. She will love you unconditionally all day long!
“Harper the Love Puppy” is a delightful tale written by Lisa Nalbone and beautifully illustrated by Spring Warren that is full of wonderful examples of the non-verbal cues dogs can give us to show us their unconditional love.
As a former therapist who worked with a social therapy dog I know the power of “puppy love”. I never ceased to be amazed how my canine co-therapist picked up a sense that someone was distressed and responded with gentle care and presence and yes, love!
I highly recommend this book to anyone working with children including therapists, teachers, librarians and health care professionals and of course, parents and grandparents.
In fact, even if you don’t work with children, I encourage you to give it a read. You are bound to feel a little better about your day, I know I did.
