Easton the Rescue Dog

"One Sunday morning, Easton woke up to some terrible news. Due to the pandemic, there was going to be a meat shortage. In a panic, Easton decided to take matters into his own paws and escape to the local deli."

As an elementary teacher of 25 years, Elizabeth Retter has developed a love for children’s books of all styles. Her background in theatre and voice add to the imagination and melodic tone found in her stories. Elizabeth has cleverly paired these elements with her love of animals. By creating “The Adventures of Easton the Rescue Pet Series,” she hopes to shine a light on the need for all rescue animals to find their forever homes.

Since Easton’s first book has come out, I have truly enjoyed my author visits to both schools & libraries. The children are really enjoying the interactive read alouds and singing that go on during the presentation. They love meeting a real author and learning that Easton is a real life character in these books. Also, I believe that it is so important for children to develop a love of reading at an early age as well as learning how to give back in their community.
