ELOISE GREENFIELD
Thinker isnÕt just an average puppy. HeÕs a poet. So is his owner, Jace, and together they turn the world around them into verse.
ÒEloise GreenfieldÕs poems in Thinker dance joyfully upon the page as they inspire confidence and authenticity in readers old and young. These are poems about love, belonging, and the rewards of sharing our gifts with the worldÑall brought to life by the delicately rich artwork of Ehsan Abdollahi.Ó
ThereÕs just one problem: Thinker has to keep quiet in public, and he canÕt go to school with Jace. That is, until PetsÕ Day. But when Thinker is allowed into the classroom at last, he finds it hard to keep his true identity a secret...
