Schmitty the Weather Dog #Giveaway

Schmitty 1

Schmitty the Weather Dog by Elly McGuire and Simon Estrada is such an adorable children’s book. When I received my copy in the mail, I flipped through it and loved the illustrations so much, I grabbed my four-year old, and we immediately read it together.

Set in New York City, this story tells of the dog’s master who wants desperately to be a meteorologist but struggles to learn the integral skills of weather prediction. Schmitty feels sorry for his “two-legged dad” and decides to take some action.  Through observing his surroundings, Schmitty begins to gain some legitimate forecasting skills. He then contacts a local news channel and sets up an audition for his master and him. Ultimately, Schmitty swoops in to save the day, and they both end up as meteorologists.

Schmitty 2

I am so excited to offer you this giveaway. One winner will win a hardback copy of Schmitty the Weather Dog. This sweet and well-written book could be read with your children at  home or added to a classroom library. This book would also make an excellent Christmas gift for the little guy or gal in your life. With beautiful illustrations, a fun plot, and a cuddly main character, children of all ages would be thrilled to experience this story.
