[nagdu] EXTERNAL:Re: Guide dog book on BARD

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (TASC)]

Yeah me too. Follow My Leader, well I just couldn't believe the premace
and if I can't at least agree to buy in for the sake of a good story, I
can't read the book. Plus, I like how Candle goes into what happened
once they got home. There is a whole lot more to just "getting a dog"
then being in class.

Yes. Light a Single Candle is a fabulous book about guide dogs and 
blindness. Personally, I found it much more realistic than Follow My
leader, 
which I found over the top even when I was 9 or 10, reading it for the
first 
time.
