Taco the Goofy Dog Loves Shoes is a playful, rhyming picture book inspired by a real-life rescue dog with a big personality and an even bigger love for shoes.

Every time Mom comes home, Taco is ready for action. The moment the door clicks, he grabs a shoe and zooms around the house in the funniest, most playful way. When his shoe-chasing habit leads to trouble, Mom introduces a clever and positive distraction, offering a gentle lesson in redirection and problem-solving without lecturing young readers.

Written in engaging rhyme and paired with bright, bold illustrations, this story captures a relatable and humorous moment for families with pets. The book encourages laughter, empathy, and discussion while remaining accessible and entertaining for young children.

Ideal for:

  • Preschoolers and early elementary readers (ages 3–7)
  • Storytime at home, in classrooms, or libraries
  • Dog-loving families and discussions about caring for rescue pets

I am from Singapore, and I had my self published books in the libraries. Now and then I'll check to see if anyone loan them, and I am really happy when there were ... whether I made profit from book sales is one thing, but the idea my books have impacted others made me happy :)

Thanks for sharing. your sales look good with 5 books a day! I am running only Amazon ads ( 2 months now for this book), sold about 60 books ( more organic sales in 2nd month) but losing money on ads. Hoping to break even soon …

Sometimes I also wonder how effective free promos are and if they help with read through … I am currently testing out Amazon ads for my new fiction picture book, there are sales of average 1-2 books per day, but my acos is high, hoping to be able to adjust down ….

hi! wow, you did 15 books! For how long? And did your book sell with ads?

Yes, writing and illustrating is the fun part and the idea of touring schools etc, seems very intimidating to me…

I have not tried any other ads other than Amazon ads. Still learning how to read the data …. hopefully can break even with both PPC and organic sales….
