I Love Vincent

November 22nd, 2020

In “I Love Vincent” published by POW!, Scout, a guide dog talks about his life with his human Vincent who is blind. Scout and Vincent are best friends and they go everywhere together. On Saturdays they go to the park and play. Then they take the subway to their favorite restaurant and when they come home, they listen to music on the record player. They both have excellent hearing!

Not only will readers have fun reading this book, they will also learn how a guide dog really works, guiding, as Laura collaborated with a “seeing challenged” person who advised her. Just so that everything would be portrayed accurately!
