Big World of Little Dude is a new six-part children’s book series based on the real life NYC therapy dog Little Dude. Little Dude was trained through The Good Dog Foundation and visits schools and hospitals in Manhattan. The books accompany a 6 week literacy-based curriculum that teach children aged 3-7, lessons on kindness, manners, feelings, respect, empathy and courage.
This year, the need for kindness and empathy is greater than ever, so we have decided to share the message as widely as we can. We will be reading the book, Kindness, in store at Little Skye Children’s Boutique on Saturday 29th of April at 11am.
“Big World of Little Dude offers a wonderful opportunity to engage children in the importance and practice of kindness from an early age. This book is sure to be a useful resource to parents and educators for years to come.” – Jennifer Kahn / Making Caring Common & Harvard Graduate School of Education
In the spirit of being kind to others, 10% of all books sales will be donated to the New York Presbyterian Hospital Pediatrics Intensive Care Unit, where Little Dude has volunteered as a Therapy Dog.
