My Review:
Thanks Book Look Program for sending me this book for free in exchange for an honest review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% my own. 
Are you a Pet Lover?  Dog Person?   
If you said yes just stop reading and go order this book.  It is such a sweet story that gives you all the good feels.  :) 
The fact that this story is based on a true story it really pulls on the heart strings.   I love how a dog and man can unite together in a race across the Gobi Desert.  
What fun it would have been to be at the finish line to see the pair cross over it with the victory.    
One of my favorite lines was, "Dion and Gobi each received a shiny medal. They knew they earned more than medals, though.  They had each earned a friend for life."  Dog's truly are "man's best friend!"

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...
