Zoey The Pomeranian Girl Dog tells, in her own words, about how she experienced being groomed for her birthday. From the pre-trim and bath, to the finishing touches, she tells children about how it’s done. Twenty One color photos illustrate her time at Paw Prints dog spa. Alexander Rooker, better known by Zoey as “Dah”, typed the story for Zoey since her little toes are too small for the family laptop. The material has been written so that the “high points” are in larger fonts- and details are in smaller fonts. Reading just the high points will help maintain the attention of the youngest of listeners. More mature children can follow the details contained in the smaller font- at which point reading the whole sentence will expand the story for the listener. When able to read the story on their own, children will enjoy having reached a personal developmental milestone.
