Oliver's Jacket
Oliver's Jacket is the 3rd book in the Oliver's Adventure Series. There are more romps in the woods and splashes in the creek, however, this book takes Oliver on a different kind of adventure.
Oliver is less than thrilled when his mom makes him wear a jacket when it's cold outside, but he quickly learns that he can stay outside longer. He gets excited when his mom invites a friend and her dog, Shadow, to their house one chilly afternoon. Shadow is wearing a jacket, so Oliver is sure they will get to go outside to play. He learns that Shadow wears her jacket inside and outside because she has a job to do, so she can't play with Oliver.
Through the course of the book Oliver meets other service dogs and he learns about their jobs in typical, fun loving, Oliver fashion.
This book also has a "seek and find" page at the end of the book. Kids and adults alike will enjoy going back through the pages of the book to look for animals and things drawn in the colorful illustrations.
This book is written for a 6-9 year old reading level but kids young and old will enjoy the story of Oliver's Jacket.
