5 top photos of Charlie

Charlie met some Australian campers and they “shared” their chili with him. Doesn’t he look happy?

Charlie checking out views of the Continental Divide stops to pose for the paparazzi.

Charlie’s favorite hangout has given him the title Ruler of the Ottoman Empire

Playing in the snow is fun, fun, fun! Resting with cross paws and guarding his stick.

The sweet face 😍 with love in his eyes. Charlie turns 9 months old today and he weighs 53 pounds.

I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.
