I wish I’d had a book like this when I was a kid! Children ages 4-8 will enjoy following the travels of border collie Chuck and his poodle pal Tilly as they visit Civil War battlefields to discover inspiring tales of Civil War dogs. Their engaging accounts, accompanied by beautiful color illustrations, introduce historical facts about the war in addition to the stories of memorable dogs whose loyalty made them famous. Among the dogs Chuck and Tilly encounter are Sallie, whose bronze statue is part of the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry’s monument at Gettysburg, Harvey of the 104th Ohio Volunteers (the “Barking Dog Regiment”), and President Lincoln’s dog Fido. Ms. Stuckenschneider's stories of these dogs were serialized in newspapers across the US during the recent Civil War 150th anniversary. It's wonderful to have them together in this beautiful book.Read full review
