It's the magical world of Mother Goose Rhymes ...starring a cast of delightful pugs! Meet the fighting pugs of Kilkenny, who kept sparring until there were none, revel in the pug that jumped over the moon, wiggle your toes with the five little puggies, watch as Sarge the pug leaps over a candlestick, visit with an old pug in a shoe, and enjoy other rhymes beloved by generations of children. Just don't be like the three little pugs that needed to wash their mugs! Illustrated with rich, lavish detail by Florina Boldi, and adapted by Laurren Darr, Mother Pug Rhymes is the perfect bedtime reading for kids, and kids at heart. About The Author: Laurren Darr has been 'owned' by pugs since her first pug rescue of White Pines Tuttie when she was just six years old. Tuttie had never been out of a cage or even uttered a bark. She was the joy of Laurren's life until she left this world at the age of 15 (human years, of course!). This silly pug would let Laurren dress her, put clippy earrings on her, and even put lipstick on her. They'd spend hours tootling around the neighborhood dressed in their Sunday best, which is why Tuttie served as the inspiration for the launch of the International Association of Pet Fashion Professionals over thirty years later. Laurren has had many pugs since. Zacchaeus was a gift to her for her 16th birthday. She has also featured family rescue pugs Inky & Sarge (brother and sister) and Benji, in her Pug Fairy Tale Series story adaptations. Her busy Chicago-area home is filled with her husband, her son, a fabulously fashionable pug named Bella and a blue and gold macaw, Kao.
