Jessica’s review of next door’s dog goes to school

Overlapping, purple brown and red shapes featuring text, with stars, lines and pencils dotted through and the cover of "Next doors dog goes to school" in the top left corner. Text reads: "Jessica's review of next door's dog goes to school "But there are dogs trained to help people who can't do things for themselves... They help in lots of other ways too because different people need different kinds of help." It is about: The different roles and ways in which therapy and medical dogs help to support people. My favourite scene: The teacher was willing to explain to the class the importance of how Roxie helps Grace. My favourite part: Learning and understanding how everyone is different and needs help in various ways. From the Author: EDUCATE! "Children and adults with Service Dogs simply ask that we accept and include their dogs, respect their privacy and allow them to pursue life to the fullest.” Recommended for children with or without disability (5-11 years), Educators and teachers."
