The Crumbles Chronicles: Battle of the Paper Bags is a children's story written by Laura Scott Schaefer. Crumbles was born in another country where it was hot, and he had to find his own food. He was rescued one day by humans who offered him good stuff to eat. They put him in a cage and flew him to the Pets Alive Animal Shelter. The other dogs explained that people would come in and look at them. If a dog was lucky, someone would save them and take them home. A woman stopped by Crumbles' cage, and he whined and cried and begged her to take him home -- and she did! It's hard, however, for Crumbles not to be scared a lot of the time because everything is new and a bit terrifying, especially the big brown grocery bags that are filled with leaves on the curb.
Laura Scott Schaefer's children's book, The Crumbles Chronicles: Battle of the Paper Bags, is the story of the author's rescue dog, Crumbles. It's filled with details about her dog and his life in their home. While it's written for children, I think anyone who loves animals will love this book. Crumbles is funny and fearlessly honest; 'I pee on myself: Deal with it' is Crumbles Code Rule #1. This story is heartwarming and entertaining, and it highlights some very good reasons to consider finding a rescue dog or cat to love. The Crumbles Chronicles: Battle of the Paper Bags is also filled with action and adventure as Crumbles and his buddy Napoleon plan their assault on the dreaded bags. It's highly recommended.
