- Will ten-year-old Emma and her family be able to keep a dog that
is afraid of almost everything? Ginger is fearful. She hides in
bushes and refuses to eat. Based on a true story, this tells about
Ginger's journey from a shelter to a loving home. Adopting Ginger
is a story about compassion, cooperation and responsibility. Linda
Griffin, MS, retired teacher and author has written her first
children's book, "Adopting Ginger." The delightful illustrations
were done by her talented fourteen-year-old niece Iliana Weinbaum.
"Children relate to the sweetness and simplicity of Iliana's
watercolor drawings," said Ms. Griffin. The book is a must read for
any family adopting a dog. What will Ginger's new family do? It is
a story that dog lovers of all ages will enjoy. Ginger was adopted
at the SPCA of Westchester by Ms.Griffin's daughter and son-in-law.
"I wrote Adopting Ginger because I felt it was a heartwarming story
that had to be told." Ms.Griffin wants people to know how important
it is to give shelter dogs time to adjust "Families will be
rewarded for their kindness and patience by having a loyal and
loving pet. Shelter dogs make the best pets ... their unique DNA
creates a one-of-a-kind canine treasure " "Bringing a dog into your
home is a big commitment, and that's why I included questions for
families and school groups to use as a springboard for a
discussion," stated Ms. Griffin. "Adopting Ginger raises awareness
about how animals should be treated and the joy that comes from
loving a pet." Adopting Ginger is a page-turner and educational as
well. For readers ages 8 to 12 For listening ages 5 and up and dog
lovers of all ages
