The Starr Student A Happy Tail From The Goofy Nefie [Paperback]

Meet Starr, the Goofy Newfie. She's ready to educate and entertain children with stories about her life as a dog trained to bring comfort, encouragement, and smiles to people who could use a special friend.

Starr is a Newfoundland dog and stands out from the pack - literally. She wows people with her size, weighing in at - bow-WOW! - 175 pounds and measuring 75 inches from the tip of her nose to the tip of her tail.

Some people say Starr looks like a black bear. Anyone who meets her knows Starr is a lovable, laid back teddy bear - a big bundle of slobbery sweetness - who may be just a little misunderstood because of her size.

Starr wants nothing more than to make people happy and give them confidence, especially children.

In Starr's debut book, The Starr Student: Happy Tails from the Goofy Newfie, Starr goes to school to learn how to be a therapy dog so she can bring people joy, hope and even the will to face tough challenges one tail wag at a time.

But Starr soon learns that school is not all fun and games...because no matter who you are or what size you are, life can be...well...ruff.
