This story, is the first in a 12 part series, chronicling aspects of the life of Genesis, a precocious five year old girl growing up on the island of Antigua. ‘Wash the Dog’ is the introduction to Genesis, who spends a lovely afternoon with her cousin Jordan, tackling the task of getting the stinky family dog clean. It is a whimsical, catchy story that rhymes, fun for children to read out loud and very easy to remember. The illustrations, are done beautifully by a local Antiguan artist named Anson Henry, who captures the very essence of the words, written by Tameka. They go hand in hand to tell a very simple tale, that will cause children to either go and wash their own family pet (whatever it may be), or encourage those who have none, to ask their parents to get them one, just because of how much fun it seems to have a pet,through the eyes of Genesis.

Dew Bear lives in Memory Forest where every day is an adventure. On this day, Dew wakes up early and decides to go visit his mom who lives in Peppermint Patty Park on the other side of Memory Forest. But, it's a very long walk. So, Dew enlists the help of his friends to try to get home before lunch. Can he borrow a pair of wings from Beezy? Or perhaps he can ride way up high on Elly the Elephant's back. Or maybe Doe-ena the deer can give him a ride. There are lots of possibilities, but Coral the elegant hummingbird offers the best idea ever. Though Dew starts out with the idea of visiting his mom just because he wants to, he soon finds out that it's Mother's Day, which makes his jouney even more important. This adventure is filled with friendship, love, and memories. It is a heart-warming journey through Memory Forest, depicted through the eyes of Dew, with over 100 color illustrations. Join Dew and friends on this memory making journey. Then enjoy the Mother's Day celebration as you meet many of the strange and wonderful creatures of Memory Forest in the 1st Book of A Day in the Life of Dew.
