Freya has been smiling for months now, big grins with crinkly eyes & fidgety toes, such a delight. She smiles without much prompting aside from an hello, but I’ve recently noticed when reading she was smiling at some of the animal noises and actions I was making so I dug out, Dog. We got our copy of Dog from the fabulous BookStart programme when Bryn was young.

Dog is a very simple tale of his activities during the day with bright illustrations. I enjoy making Freya smile with my various barks & imitation of typical dog mannerisms, I particularly like acting out ‘dog choosing’
