About this title

Synopsis

**Best Children's Book - New England Book Festival Honorable Mention Winner, "Great Books for Kids" - Cape Cod Magazine, A classroom favorite book for teachers!** A children's book needed now more than ever - teaching children about the power of kindness and proving that one person can make a difference. This book illustrates the power of helping someone in need and making a difference, even at a young age. These experiences of "giving back" are learning moments for children to take into adulthood and create positive change in their community. This book initiates a starting point for meaningful discussions about the ways children can become more involved with helping people in their community. The story describes how Charlie and his adopted dog, Max, have an unforgettable and life-changing summer through Cape Cod and Nantucket. Along the way, they develop a special bond and become best friends. When they meet a veteran and his service dog, they learn how service dogs greatly improve quality of life. Consequently, Charlie and Max are inspired to raise money for a service dog to be trained for a veteran. They meet many dog friends who want to be part of their journey to “Help a Hero”. Max and Charlie realize that they are “Never Too Young” to have an impact, help a person in need, and motivate others to make a difference. The characters in the book are inspired by real people and dogs. Kids will enjoy matching up the photos in the back of the book with the illustrated characters. This book ties back to the true story of a group of Nantucket children who raised $30,000 to have a service dog trained for a veteran. The book incorporates actual photographs of beautiful Cape Cod and Nantucket. The illustrated characters in the book overlay these photographs and makes it a unique keepsake or souvenir for anyone who loves Cape Cod or Nantucket.
