Review of Frankie’s Newest Book Hits the Big Times!

Posted by Barbara Techel

Having a review from not just one little girl, but two, is the best review you can ask for when you have a children’s book.  You know they don’t hold anything back, are honest, and speak from their hearts.  A few weeks ago when I read Madeline and Sophia’s reviews of my newest book, Frankie, the Walk ‘N Roll Therapy Dog Visits Libby’s House  I was touched beyond words.

Today I found out their review made it into the big times!  WOW! This is so thrilling!  And thrilling to just picture these two young girls, gleaming with pride that their review made it into the Chicago Sun Times! Fantastic!!  Congratulations, Madeline and Sophia… and thank you again from the bottom of my and Frankie’s heart.

Testimonial for Frankie, the Walk ‘N Roll Therapy Dog Visits Libby’s House

Posted by Barbara Techel

What a wonderful way to start my day with this unsolicited testimonial from Vicki who recently read our newest book.  I asked her if I could have her permission to share, of which she graciously agreed.  Thank you, Vicki!

This book is pure love.  And what a treat to see that the story is told once again by Frankie!  I so enjoyed all the vignettes, and the illustrations are beautifully done.  Thank you to Barbara and Frankie for continuing to share their journey with the world.  They are both treasures.
