Author Charmaine Hammond wrote Toby and His Hospital Friends based on the book and movie, On Toby's Terms. Toby is a pet therapy dog who visits the children's hospital every week with his owner, Miss Charmaine. The young patients look forward to seeing Toby because he is kind, generous, and lifts their spirits. The story walks readers through a typical visit day which educates about them about the therapeutic value of animals.
Rose Anne Prevec's illustrations enhance this delightful story of sharing, caring, and hope.
Toby and His Hospital Friends increases awareness of pet therapy. The author also includes a set of questions at the end of the book to help readers improve their critical thinking skills. This is an uplifting story that will be appreciated by people of all ages.
