My Name is Boscoe was inspired by my beloved little Boston Terrier. It is a thoughtful story that teaches us to love ourselves from the inside out in spite of our differences. As children we learn that not everyone is the same. We don't always need to try and fit into the crowd but simply allow our personality to be just who we are. Boscoe was teased because he made a funny noise when he expressed his emotions. Those who came to know him realized it wasn't the funny noise that stood out, but the way he comforted the world around him. "That which makes us different makes us special."
