THE “SUPERPOWER” of Pets!
Anyone who has a four-legged family member understands the superpowers our pets have. Now imagine if we could spread that positive spirit of love, peace, and happiness to everyone. It might just make the whole world a better place. A boy named Chuck soon discovers his own personal happiness and self-assurance when he meets his new furry best friend Charlie. Together, they embark on a mission to spread joy and happiness to everyone.
This is a heartwarming tale showing us what we can accomplish if we believe in something and someone we meet (even if that ‘someone’ is a dog) helps us make that dream come true.
The book includes positive affirmations to help all children improve their self-confidence and empathy. It also helps to promote the spirit of pet adoptions and all of the organizations that are sheltering animals awaiting adoption.
This book has evolved directly from my real life problem. I don’t know about you, but I’m always misplacing things. How many of you have a pile of lonely socks waiting for their other half to be found?
Well I decided to finally do something about it. Since my dog is always sniffing around trying to find things anyway I officially designated him Nosey McNosey - Doggy Detective and sent him out on a case to find my missing sock… I sure hope he finds it…… my toes are getting cold!
…. And I definitely have more problems than misplacing things! ….so look for my series of Nosey McNosey books coming your way as Nosey is on the case to solve many other strange mysteries in my family’s life!

Believing in yourself!
From the moment I started reading this story I knew it would be one I would want to share with my granddaughter and students. What makes this book so special, is children can relate to the main character. All of us go through times of anxiety, and this shows how a child starts to problem solve with help from his family due to to his missing dog. Definitely add to your collection. Denise

It reminded me of my own favorite books from childhood.
Michael has tapped into something universal here!

Seriously one of the best ones we have read for a while!
I am a teacher and early literacy/reading specialist. One of my private tutoring students and I stumbled upon your Charlie and Chuck book, and I need to tell Michael that we are absolutely LOVING it! (Both of us) :) It is amazing, entertaining, kind, relevant, and uplifting. Seriously one of the best ones we have read for a while! (Of course, we are both dog lovers.). Sandra C.
