Charlie spends plenty of time hiking, climbing and getting dirty.
Fortunately, he’s happy to hop in the tub as soon as he gets home.
Followed by a nap.
This is the life!

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.

I hike nearly every day but rarely nap. That’s when I get work done. 😊 Thank you, I’ll give him his share. 🤗🤗

Yes! Everyone should be so lucky 🍀 to have Charlie’s schedule.
He prefers a shorter bath but he certainly enjoys a long nap.
