Hey Laura,
Thanks for your feedback. Adding my regional restrictions on speaking is a good idea. It has not been a problem yet (no calls from Hollywood), but a great idea.

Hi Laura,
I love your idea. I can't wait to read it. I was a special education teacher for 16 years and I'm writing a middle grade novel about being a puppy raiser for service dogs. It's finished and I'm getting ready to start sending to publishers. Congratulations on your book. Sheri

Wow, your book looks great. We hatch chicks in my class each year, so this would be a great book for my students to relate to!
