    • Good Boy is an extremely witty, educational and emotional insight into a dog's mind, demonstrated through everyday experiences that will transport the reader into the canine world. The reader will gain a better understanding of how a dog thinks and how the main goal of our domestic friend is to please their owner and earn their respect and love. Whether they own a dog themselves or know a dog that lives with a family member or friend, the reader will never look at a dog in the same way again. Good Boy is an exceptional way for children and adults to learn how their dog may be thinking in certain situations and help them understand dogs better. As poetry written from a dog's perspective, Good Boy is a very well thought out and deeply relevant piece of work.

    • Along with delighting generations with colorful designs, children's handkerchiefs also served social and educational roles. From early Puritan moralistic subjects, the designs evolved to depict childhood, sports and games, nursery rhymes, and fairy tales. By the 20th century, storybook and comic strip characters appeared, such as Mickey Mouse, Raggedy Ann, and Davy Crockett.
