"Bash and Lucy," whose authors were featured on the "Today Show,"
is a Mom's Choice Silver Award Winner, and Finalist, 2013 USA Best
Book Awards. In this contemporary boy-and-dog tale, talkative Bash
has a big problem in soccer: His beloved dog, Lucy, is a pro at
nabbing the ball, but sometimes at the wrong moment. Coach wants to
ban Lucy from soccer practice and games, separating Bash from a
companion who boosts his confidence in sports--and life. In this
picture book for kids age 4-8, Bash and friends help Coach
understand that with Lucy by their side, they feel more confident,
laugh more often, and are comforted when they make mistakes.
Award-winning author Lisa Cohn and her 5-year-old son, Michael,
wrote the book and started "Michael's Dog Blog" to help overcome
their grief over the sudden death of their dog, Lucy. Watch them on

endearing story about a boy and his soccer-loving dog, is a book
that kids (and the adults who read it to them) will enjoy. Any kid
who plays soccer, any parent who's watched or coached soccer, and
anyone who's loved a dog will find something to love about this
book -Susan Moshofsky, teacher, parent, and former soccer mom "Bash
and Lucy Fetch Confidence" is a wonderful story that teaches kids
and their families about the important relationships we can have
with dogs and illustrates beautifully how there can be more than
one way to do something...and that the best way isn't always the
obvious way It promotes relationships above results and creative
thinking above the status quo. A great read for any dog lovers
--Phoebe Spier, Musician and Child/Youth Development Professional
In this charming and humorous tale about a boy and his dog, the
authors cleverly show us, through the eyes of the boy and his dog,
the beautiful life lessons learned about friendship, love and
sportsmanship. Lucy-dog embodies the spirit of teamwork as she
builds confidence in a boys' soccer team and encourages them to
work together without saying a word Age-old values such as respect,
love and non-violence punctuate the pages. Young or old, one cannot
help but smile at the antics of Lucy and her teammates. Bravo
--Laura Stipkala, teacher and parent Such a cute book...awesome
illustrations, too. I really like the idea of using the dog to help
teach the concept of teamwork, the importance of confidence, and
how the dog represented to the boys these ideas. I also enjoyed the
flow of the book...It's a nice story that can teach some great
lessons to kids in sports. --Kirk Mango, National Champion, Hall of
Famer, & author of "Becoming a True Champion" "Bash & Lucy
Fetch Confidence" is a winning picture book that teaches children
about the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship while also
revealing the close bond between children and their beloved
pets..a. great choice for kids age 4-8. --Erin MacLellan, author
and parent "Bash and Lucy" drives home a valuable lesson -- kids
will have the best opportunity to thrive in sports and life if
their adult role models provide a comfortable environment that
engenders confidence. I highly recommend including this book in
your family's bedtime collection." --Jack Malley, youth sports
coach and author
