And Then There's Charlie...The Adventures of Charlie the Chocolate Lab

 Marce Walsh

This story is about a real dog named Charlie. His life was full of the usual occurrences in a dog's life, plus some. Charlie stood out from most dogs because he was a big, loveable huggy bear who made everyone's life a little better by knowing him. Charlie worked for many years as a therapy dog and made a big difference in the lives of many sick children and the elderly. Charlie didn't have a mean bone in his body-like all dogs, all he wanted was love. Charlie got it. Charlie was a lucky dog and those who knew him were even luckier.

This story chronicles the adventures of Charlie's life-from adoption to retirement and all the adventures in between. Children will enjoy getting to know Charlie and sharing in his adventures chapter by chapter. Readers will also learn a bit about caring for an animal: the committment, care, and love animals need every single day.

Proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit Citizens for Animal Protection and Caring Critters in Houston, Texas and the Irvine Animal Care Center in Irvine, California where Charlie was adopted.
