Wonderful book for kids & "Newfie people"

I bought "Newf" for my kids, (and because we are Newfie owners) and kept it after they outgrew it. The only characters in the story are the huge gentle dog which arrives mysteriously from the sea, and the orphan kitten it finds and adopts. "Newf" is an engaging tale of how the dog watches over the kitten, and rescues it when it gets onto danger. Appealing illustrations, and a warm, reassuring story, especially for younger children.
This book is beautifully written and illustrated.

The author's choice of words paints a picture as beautiful as the illustrator does with paint. This is a wonderful example for children on how to use discriptive words to paint a picture for the reader. The story stands alone with its characters and plot, but with the illustrations it becomes a treasure to cherish.
