Produktbeschreibung

Francesca is a charming story about a pampered and humorously dramatic basset hound's discovery of life beyond herself. All is lovely until the night she catches a glimpse of a grungy creature outside her window. This initiates a battle between her heart and her stubborn mind. With the help of her human, Annie, the underlying themes of appreciation, acceptance, valuing others, friendship and genuine love become exposed in this delightfully poetic book. The beautiful and silly illustrations easily draw the reader into the story while the clever, metered tale engages and entertains.

Autorenporträt

Sarah Barnard was born and raised on the shores of Lake Michigan, a setting that emulates beauty and encourages discovery. Sarah grew up in a home that nurtured reading, learning, and treasuring all living things. In sixth grade, this curious, artistic girl discovered creative writing and thrived, which lead to her 'first publishing' - a poem requested for the middle school yearbook. These factors paved the way for her to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education, and serve her well in her job as the media clerk at a local elementary school library. They also factor in with another passion - photography. Sarah has been a professional photographer for nearly twenty years and loves exposing unobserved beauty in the landscape and inner beauty in portraiture. Sarah's parents, husband, three incredible daughters and grand-daughter are extremely important elements in her personal growth and story.
