Michelle Lander Feinberg’s award-winning Cooper the Dog book series introduces young readers to the energetic, captivating world of an oversized, lovable rescue dog and his adoptive family. Join Cooper as he makes new friends, travels the world, and learns that dogs and humans make all kinds of sounds and smells. Written in hilarious rhyming doggerel poetry, and beautifully illustrated by Anna Mosca, the series is a visual treat to share with kids, caregivers, parents, and dog lovers everywhere.
Our mission is to entertain young readers and inspire conversations about pet adoption, friendship, diversity, and kindness to people and animals.
1. They aren’t all mutts! (not that there’s anything wrong with that..) You can find almost any purebred dog through a rescue group!
2. They aren’t all older animals! (again…) Shelters and rescue groups get plenty of puppies and young dogs.
3. Many shelter animals are healthier than pet store animals! Just say NO to pet shops/puppy mills!
4. History a mystery? Not always! Info from previous owners as well as thorough observation provides a lot of good insight.
Cooper is a rescue mutt- come meet him! (please just don’t tell him he’s a dog).
