Written by C. Strassel; Illustrated by Lucia Benito; Edited by Bibliokid Publishing
Mean munching monsters? Dr. Vet giving Extra-ordinary shots?! Join Clooney on his real life adventure to beat the heart worms AND help other pups and their families win against them, too!
About the real Clooney: Clooney is a 2021 Hurricane Ida Rescue flown by Wings of Rescue from
PALS Rescue in Summit, Mississippi to Brandywine Valley SPCA in Georgetown, Delaware. Clooney’s Mom saw his photo on a BVSPCA
Facebook post and was first in line to adopt him the next morning. He had already tested heartworm positive and that’s where this journey began.
Clooney is 100 percent healthy now and to pay their good fortune forward, Clooney and his Mom wish to raise awareness and reduce the number of dogs contracting this preventable disease. Clooney is also super shy and used be afraid of lots of things, but now he’s only afraid of a few things. He learned, with his Mom’s love and support, how to overcome his fears. Stay tuned for more of Courageous Clooney’s adventures.
Clooney has also inspired his Mom to create “Clooney’s Coats” which donates crocheted dog’s coats to various veterinarian’s and rescues in U.S.A Check out Clooney’s Coats on Instagram #clooneyscoats.
Clooney does wear bowties and purchases them exclusively at bowtieatticus.org – bowties that give back!
Clooney & his Mom’s Motto is: “Doing small things with great love.”

Thanks for the reviews. That saves me a lot of time. I have six kiddos at home to buy for, and little time to do the research myself.
I love these books. I’m getting ready to attend a baby shower and looking for unique ideas. Thanks for this post.
Thanks for the book references. My friend has a little one and these would be perfect.
Love the Baby Monitor. Want to keep an eye on a sick stray cat we brought in and are caring for .
