Holiday Gift Giving 2009 to include Brandy and Val Books and Toys

Mini even has pink pads and a pink nose!
Aren't we handsome?
OK, I’m partial to dog books, especially funny ones and ones that have cute pictures of mans best friend. I also love books that “give” back in some way to those in need or requiring extra love and care! So, here goes my one and only plug for why Brandy and Val books and toys make great gifts:
100% of profits go to animal rescue
IN THE FEEL GOOD CATEGORY: Brandy and Val books and toys donate a portion of sales back to animal rescues in our community and nationally. 100% of profits from BRANDY AND VAL’S SPECIAL STORY are donated to the shelter we adopted the dogs from: Fortunate Pooch and Lab Rescue. Other rescues and pet sanctuaries we donate to include:
The books were originally written for a child afflicted with Prader-Willi Syndrome and, therefore, a donation is also made to The Prader-Willi Syndrome Association.
We're fun to play with
IN THE ENTERTAINMENT CATEGORY: They’re for toddlers (ages 3-5 is perfect) so they have to be cute, amusing and fun! The books use actual, unstaged photos of Brandy and Val in action that children can relate to, especially if there is a pet in the family. Brightly colored pages hold their interest and the tabbed pages make it easier for little fingers to turn the pages. The plush toys that look like the dogs are cuddly and kids can use their imaginations to make up their own stories about Brandy and Val.
THEY’RE EDUCATIONAL: The simple themes in each book can be opened up for further discussions. Topics like sharing, being a family, healthy eating, pet adoption, to name a few and, along with the Mini-Brandy and Mini-Val toys, the stories can be “acted out.” Color and shape recognition can be taught since each page is easily identifiable with a single predominant color and most pages have one or two primary shapes in their layouts.
OTHER NIFTY STUFF: Brandy and Val books and toys are easily put into a tote for travel! Keep your kids occupied at restaurants, on planes, wherever. Books are compact 4 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ and toys can be squished in anywhere. We are also affordably priced.
We have lots of Favorite Things
