Although Sharon Stanley has been writing for years, it was only after her youngest son graduated high school that she got serious about it.
She joined the SCBWI and began to write with an eye to publish children’s picture books. Sharon published her first print book, The Little Dog in the Middle of the Road last winter with Silver Tongue Press, and has several others under contract.
She lives with 5 chickens, 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 sons and one husband on a working farm in Virginia, where she endeavors to “live creatively…with cows.”
She enjoys mixed media artwork and blogs about her creative and farm life at farmandfrufru.blogspot.com.

My Review:
This was a cute story about a dog that missed his person, and how it is sad he gets. I would have liked the dog not to sit in the middle of the road and give little readers ideas. I would have liked a safety lesson about staying on the sidewalk to avoid dangerous cars. This book could have told kids not to run away, not to get in cars with strangers, and a lot of other safety issues. The story does have a happy ending. I am giving this book a 2/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
