Sammy, Dog Detective

I handed this book to a low level student today. He devoured it. It's so hard to find really interesting books for youngsters who read at a much lower grade level than their peers. This one is so interesting, it's worth the challenge to a young reader.

My name is Andy Schlenker, Sammy's Police Officer partner. Sammy and I are still working together in the Modesto CA Police Department. We wanted to let everyone know that we really enjoyed working with Colleen Stanley Bare, and are thrilled to be featured in this book.We have been to many schools and other events locally where children have seen and read the book. Every child I have met has been thrilled with the book. It is informative, factual, and funny!The book is filled with many pictures. Some are of Sammy and I working, and some are fun pictures. They all depect Sammy's very unique personality.I think dog lovers as well as children would really enjoy this book!Sincerely, Andy & Sammy
