DISAGREEABLE DOT

Another TRUDY book, written as if the author is a Jack Rat named Trudy. A rancher has many horses. His love for animals caused him to rescue lots, thus causing Trudy to have many, many friends. Trudy shares her experiences on her farm with her son, her brother, and her sisters. Amongst her friends are many children, a white German shepherd named Vanna, a special horse named Charlie and many more horses and ponies. Oh, there are many other kinds of animals too. This story teaches the dog group a lesson on how some people may just be unhappy. They are watched by Dot while their masters are away. Dot never smiles. She treats the little dogs in seemly harsh ways at times. They know she does nothing but frown and think her smile is upside down. Finally they figure that she is just unhappy. This makes Trudy and the others try every way that they can to turn that smile from completely around and back from upside down.
