FINLEY FEELS

By:

Joan Waites

Follow along with little dachshund Finley in this children's board book as he experiences all the emotions of being adopted into a new home, mirroring similar kinds of emotions a young child may feel when facing an unfamiliar situation.

Finley is a piebald dachshund who just wants a new family! But with this new experience comes some very big feelings. Follow along with this little dog as he deals with all the emotions of being adopted. From initially feeling shy and curious to eventually feeling playful and happy, Finley slowly adjusts to his new home and a jealous kitty.

Through playful illustrations, young readers will easily identify with this sweet puppy, especially the excitement he feels when his new best friend comes home for school. This adoption story leaves you feeling just as loved as Finley is by his new family.
