Nito Meets Chloe - Review

Nito's day has finally come and all his training about to be put to good use when he meets Chloe - a disabled child in a wheelchair.

Nito helps Chloe find her clothes in the morning, goes to school and swimming therapy with her, as well as the grocery store and restaurant.  Nito even gets to ride on the ferris wheel.

Nito Meets Chloe written by Judith M. Newton is the second book in the three part series.  These books are based on actual assistance dogs and shows children how they are an important part of a disabled person's life.

Nito Meets Chloe is available at  Amazon.com or at; http://www.assistancedogsofthewest.org/

It's Pet Week

To kick off pet week I have a 3 part review of some very special and long overdue books. Nito's books (Nito's Tale, Nito Meets Chloe and Nito and Chloe Get an Invitation) are based on a true story of an assistance dog living in the west.

Nito is the smallest puppy in his litter, but despite his tiny size he's choosen over his brothers and sisters.  But little does Nito know, he's being taken in for a very special purpose - Nito will be an assistance dog and soon learns all that entails.

Nito's Tale is a wonderful little book that's written in verse and from Nito's point of view.  A great addition to any child's library.  I give it 5 paws up!

Did you know...?

According to national statistics, 19 percent of the U.S. population is defined as disabled?  This includes the;
  • aging
  • ill
  • vision and hearing impaired
  • physically disabled
  • mentally disabled
For these individuals, service dogs offer both championship and support throughout their lives.  For more information check out; http://www.assistancedogsofthewest.org/
