Shoot for the Moon!: Lessons on Life from a Dog Named Rudy
Some books are for kids, some kid's books are really for adults, and then there are those special picture books that are for everybody. Corinne Humphrey left her job as a flight attendant to live a different life, so she adopted a dog, and took painting lessons. Shoot for the Moon is the lovely result of both. Rudy, is her muse, a dog who found a loving home after several foster homes and apparent abuse. Her paintings are the life lessons that she learned from Rudy. Bold, primary colors lend a bright, cheerful tone. Originally self-published as The Tao of Rudy, the book won an Independent Publisher Bronze Medal for Outstanding Book Design in 2007, and a ForeWord Reviews magazine Book of the Year Award in 2008.
