    "Charming, funny, and ultimately inspiring book (even a dog can fight city hall!)... Kids will identify with Johnny Angel, cheer his victory, and learn valuable lessons about conservation through the tale of this little hero."

     "My copies of Bark! Bark! Bark for My Park! arrived yesterday. I hadn't expected how thrilled I'd be! The book is so well executed! The choices for layout and fonts are super. It's fabulous that a groundhog, a fawn, a raccoon and others cooperated for the photos: perhaps they realized it was crucial for their habitat and their well being. And I'm glad that Johnny Angel could be such a talented model, reenacting the true events--especially grabbing the newspaper with the horrible headlines. I like how you honor your co-author throughout and have included his excellent credentials in the About the Authors section. It's great that he reads to kids at the library! He must bring lots of pizzazz to the serious and vital ideas you cover in presentations, making the presentations exceptionally appealing and the ideas very convincing."
