    Children need to learn basic etiquette beyond saying, ‘please’ and ‘thank you.’ 
 
In recent years, rude behavior and bullying have become the ‘new norm’ while common courtesy seems to be a thing of the past. 
 
What separates humans from animals is our ability to reason and manage our emotions. 
 
Yet, what if children could learn manners from a story about a dog who struggles with the same emotional challenges as they do?
 
Training children and dogs is not an easy task.
 
This book aims to teach children manners through the eyes of a dog named ‘Max,’ who is modeled after my own dog, ‘Mad Max.’

    Dedicated to the glaciers, streams, and wild places that sustain us all. 
Location: Rocky Mountains, USA 
Deep in the shimmering waters of the Coral Triangle, Flick, a curious young seahorse, and Sandy, a grumpy but loyal crab, dart through swaying coral branches, playing tag in their vibrant reef. But something is changing. The colors are fading, the water is growing still, and the reef’s once-lively hum is disappearing. 
When they meet Glow, a regal but fading coral, she reveals a troubling truth—the reef is struggling. Warmer waters, creeping algae, and vanishing sea life are leaving it weaker than ever. 
Determined to help, Flick and Sandy set off on a journey to uncover how the reef can be saved. Along the way, they meet incredible sea creatures—a parrotfish cleaning algae, a sea turtle tending the seagrass, and a tiny shrimp scrubbing fish scales—each playing a role in keeping the ocean alive. 
But is it enough? Can the reef be restored? 
With the guidance of Raya, a wise manta ray, Flick and Sandy make an unexpected discovery—one that could bring hope back to the ocean. The reef’s future isn’t lost yet… but time is running out.
