Miss Missy’s School: A Pack of Farm Dogs Starts a School is so much more than an endearing family story. It’s also a place for children and their grownups to learn!

The “As Someone Once Said” callouts of Miss Missy’s School Book I: A Pack of Farm Dogs Starts a School were a lot of fun to write. Challenging! But a lot of fun.
