Vachtor Finds a Home is the debut work of new author SC Hallen. It is illustrated by talented artist Sharron Henderson. Vachtor is a German Short-haired Pointer puppy with great personality and some big problems. This story chronicles his journey from scared abandoned puppy, to beloved pet, and Guardian of the Heart.
The story is fun and engaging, told from the point of view of an energetic and loveable puppy. He is silly and sweet, and has big ideas for the little dog that he is. I don't want to spoil the ending for you, so you will just have to get it for yourself (and your little ones of course!). I promise the ending is a happy one!
Now the illustrations are works of art. Sharron Henderson is truly talented at her craft and did a wonderful job capturing Vachtor and his friends. The bright colors and fun characters are brought to life on the pages.
The fun and poignant story and beautiful illustrations are reason enough to get this book. But what if I told you I happen to know the author? And I know that there is a whole series of these books in the works? SC Hallen is a great friend of mine. And I know her adorable Vachtor personally. So this book? Yeah, its based on a real dog. You can even look on her bio and find pictures of the real Vachtor! Check out her website here. Even better there is a whole series of books coming soon! I will link to those later on as they become available.
My favorite part of the series (and yes, I have read several of them) is that they deal with issues today's kids will deal with in their lives. These books will help them validate their emotions through the loveable characters. There are precious few of these types of books available, so a whole series dealing with real life issues, like going to the doctor, is a great way to help children deal with new situations and emotions. So pick up your copy today!
Available on Amazon in eBook and print forms here.
Available on Barnes and Noble on Nook here.

Happy reading everyone!
