Charlie the Ranch Dog: Charlie Goes to the Doctor

Description

Poor Charlie the Ranch Dog isn't feeling well this morning. He has an awful pain in his tummy that won't go away. He doesn't even want bacon, so he knows it's serious! Mama knows exactly where to go to help her achy basset hound feel better, but Charlie is nervous about visiting the veterinarian's office. Can Dr. Jan help Charlie get his appetite back In this I Can Read title from Ree Drummond, The Pioneer Woman, beginning readers will sneak a peek at the inside of a vet's office and learn that a trip to the doctor isn't all that scary after all!

The child of an orthopedic surgeon, Ree Drummond enjoyed the standard suburban lifestyle. She went to college at USC, stayed in LA, and loved life as a heels-wearing, surfer-dating vegetarian. That all changed when she met Marlboro Man and became a ranch wife and mother. Since then, she has created an enormously successful blog, The Pioneer Woman, which documents her hilarious transition from city life to ranch wife. Her site won two 2008 Bloggies-Best Food Blog and Best Writing of a Weblog-and was the winner of a 2007 "Best Kept Secret" Bloggie Award. The site was also nominated for a number of Bloggers' Choice Awards, including Best Humor Blog, Best Photography Blog, and Best Blog of All Time. Ree is 30-something and very attractive and promotable; she's featured in the November 2007 issue of Tulsa People. She lives on a huge cattle ranch near Pawhuska, OK, with her husband and their four children.
