TYLER, Texas, Feb. 25, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dogs may be man's best friend, but ask any child, and they'll tell you nothing beats puppies. Children's book author Pat Trant Kidd presents an endearing tale about a playful young Rottweiler in Puppy Breath, a heartwarming color picture book for kids.
Written in memory of the author's own Rottweiler dog, Puppy Breath is one puppy's Christmas story. Bordeaux, a black and brown Rottweiler, finds himself unable to take a nap. Everything seems quiet in the house-no noise coming from the children, no TV set turned on, no computer games being played, and no bath tub running over with water.
Bordeaux realizes that it's because no children were around. Frantically, he runs down the hall looking for the kids, slipping and hitting his head in his panic. And that's when he sees the tall, green tree decorated with colored balls and lights that blinked and winked. Underneath it were presents wrapped in red, green, and gold bows. Suddenly, Bordeaux gets a great idea.
What could this adorable puppy be up to now? Where are all the children, anyway? Will Bordeaux be able to take his nap again? Will Bordeaux be able to give the children a Christmas gift? These questions will be answered in this engaging story about a puppy's love and the children who adore him. For more information, log on to www.Xlibris.com.
