About the Author

Meggan Hill and Susan M. Graunke grew up surrounded by animals. Meggan remembers daily rides on her pony, Popsicle, with her dear dog, Woofer, following. Susan will never forget sharing picnic lunches with her horse, Lady Noney, and Bumper, her pet cow. Caring for creatures shaped who Meggan and Susan became. This is their first book.

Nico and Lola still enjoy time together playing tag, sharing special snacks, and taking naps on their favorite blanket. They continue to be the very best kind of friends.

Reviews

PreSchool-Grade 1 Nico's aunt asks her nephew if he would be so kind as to watch her pug, Lola, while she's away. Excited, Nico agrees, but later begins to wonder, "How will I be so kind?" So begins a pleasant story about sharing everyday kindnesses. This book has a wealth of meaningful messages like, "being kind is showing concern for others." Each message is illustrated by the actions of either Nico or Lola as they spend their time together doing doggy and boy activities. Each new page shows the duo participating in excellent behaviors: cleaning, helping one another, sharing, exercising, and getting along with others. The rural, verdant setting adds to the appeal of this story. The photos suffer from some poor composition and digital editing, but the adorable nature of the subjects more than makes up for this. A good choice for teaching core values, this book will have wide appeal for young audiences. Jasmine L.
