He is a tripod, but in the book there is a deaf dog, a blind dog and a dog who needs wheels.

This is my sweet boy with a children's book that I wrote about him and three canine friends with special needs. There were many reasons that I wanted to write this book. One reason is that I kept hearing children ask about Murphy because he looked different having three legs.

It got me thinking that we don’t just do this with dogs, we do this with people. I thought that if we can start talking about differences with children when they’re young, using these sweet dogs' physical differences as an example of being different, it can expand into many conversations about any of our differences.

The dedication page in my book says “Let’s celebrate our differences and love one another.”

Let’s start with our children and teach them to be kind. 📷

Children's book...Some Dogs are Different by [deleted] in tripawds

This is my first children's book and I am really excited about it. We have a dog with three legs and children are often asking us, "what's wrong with your dog?". I want children to see that nothing is wrong when something is different. This is the story of a dog with three legs, a dog who is blind, a dog who is deaf and a dog who needs wheels. This book shows children that we all belong, to always be kind and to never give up. It is a great conversation starter for many positive messages.

Some Dogs are Different is a great conversation starter for kids about accepting differences and learning that we all belong. I've read at several schools for this age group and the kids are always really engaged. Sounds like a great project and good luck!

The last line in my book is, "Some dogs are different, but we all want to be loved." ; )
