    If I Were Human

    Written by W.B. Tyler

    Publisher’s Synopsis: Brina, a Scottish Terrier, has lots of fun thinking about what she would do if she were a person! But when she shares those ideas with her friends, she begins to realize just how special it is to be a dog. The simplicity of If I Were Human makes it ideal for early readers, but with its imaginative story and entertaining illustrations, adults and children alike will love it. And who knows―you just may discover that you’d rather be a dog!

      I would love this for my grandchildren. I have two dogs and two cats. My dogs love the children and are always trying to give them kisses. The kids really don’t like their faces licked.

      Our family–immediate and extended–loves pets and I know this book would be a big winner as a holiday gift. I’m always looking for books that are going to get the kids excited about reading and sharing and talking about books, and I know this would be one of those books.

      Oh my gosh! My 8 yr. old granddaughter’s two dogs looked exactly like these. How fun it would be to have a book for her & two puppy plushes to hold while we read together. Her dogs, Izzy (white Westie) & Wally (black Scottie) both passed away recently…six months apart. It was devasting for my granddaughter. This would really fill her heart with love & a new joy.

      I’d be excited to win this giveaway because we have owned West Highland White Terriers before. Their name were Charlie and Corkie. Westies are wonderful dogs.

      As I am a pet owner, I always have wandered what they think of us. I think this book sounds like a wonderful story to read for any age.

      I picture my granddaughter holding those cute little “stuffies” as she calls them the dogs while I read the book to her.

      Such an adorable concept for a picture book. Our pups are practically treated like humans, so… 🙂

      It’s awesome that we get to see things from the dog’s viewpoint. I have an adorable Chihuahua and I often wonder what he is thinking when he stares at me as if he is sending me mental messages that I am too stupid to understand. Thanks for the opportunity to win

      Who wouldn’t like to know what their dog is thinking about. I know I’d like to know what Sir Brutus of Duracell (our min pin/Manchester terrier mix) is thinking sometimes. I tend to just call him Brutus most times, but sometimes I do think he thinks he is of a royal bloodline the way he lays or sits with his two front paws so ever crossed with one laying a top the other just so-so.

      I’m excited to win because Sydney would love the book and the plush dogs. She just loves animals, but dogs are her favorite.
