About the Author

Charmaine Hammond is the author of the runaway bestseller, ON TOBY'S TERMS as well as a children series based on that book. 
Review:
Toby is a Therapy Dog who goes to a school and teaches children that it is better to be a buddy, not a bully. This is a delightful book which teaches children to share their feelings if someone bullies them, explaining to the bully how much they may have hurt their feelings. They are also encouraged to tell an adult. Children from all ages will be able to relate to Buddy's plight and will be able to incorporate it into their own lives. The life lessons that are taught will last a lifetime.
This is a  great installment into the Toby Series.
