Fa la la la la and Great George! A clever scottie and a monkey team up for a tale of fidelity. Gimlet Rose approves.


This is a tale of two animals, of the stuffed variety, and their shelf lives in Mrs. Kay's antique store.
Scottie Tertius finds new life with children Bruno and Rebecca ... but Pliny the Monkey is left behind on the back shelf, his long tail covering the spot vacated by Tertius.
What's a lonely monkey to do?
Wait and see what Tertius dreams up for his old friend.
It's a sweet book, and finely drawn, but you won't find it lingering on the shelves of the nearest bookstore chain. If you want a copy, and I think you will, you will have a quest on your hands. Maybe you'll venture to abe.com or bookfinder.com
If you're interested in dog tales, and naturally, who wouldn't be, this is a great one. Tertius the Scottie is fidelity unleashed, and quite the maverick in the toy department.
When you find a copy of this book, here's how to do it justice:
• take a long walk with your friends
• go home and grab your favorite comforter and some cookies
• jump up on your favorite chair or couch and snuggle up
• open the book and find yourself among good friends
• turn the pages and then ... you're getting ... s...l ... e.... e ....p .... eeeee.
• wake up and ... find yourself among your own good friends.
Read a good book. There's nothing like it.
