What can a dog teach a child about feelings, kindness, and everyday courage?
12 Lessons I Learned From My Dog is a gentle picture book about love, emotions, and friendship—told through twelve simple, heartwarming lessons inspired by the way dogs live and love. With soft, comforting illustrations and short, memorable messages, this book helps toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners understand big feelings in a calm, positive, and practical way.
Dogs have so much to teach us about kindness, joy, and loving with our whole hearts. In this sweet and simple book about dogs, children will discover twelve lessons our furry friends have to share—lessons that support social-emotional growth while still feeling like a cozy storytime read. It’s a warm celebration of dog love that kids can feel on every page.
Inside, kids and children will learn to:
-
Speak up when they need something (and ask clearly for love, help, or play)
-
Stay close to the people they love and feel safe with
-
Notice the tiniest moments—smell, listen, and feel the world around them
-
Understand that rest is allowed, and they don’t have to “earn” it
-
Stand beside friends and protect the ones they love
-
Say “No” when something feels wrong—and know their voice matters
-
Reunite with joy and appreciation, like it’s the very first time
-
Shake off hard moments and keep going
-
Begin again with a fresh start, every single day
-
Go outside when life feels heavy and let a simple walk help
-
Stay curious and explore the world with wonder
-
Remember the biggest lesson of all: love is your superpower
This picture book about dogs is designed to be more than cute—it’s meaningful. Each lesson is short enough for a toddler to understand with help, and clear enough for a preschooler or kindergartner to repeat and remember. Parents, caregivers, and teachers can use these pages as gentle prompts for talking about emotions, boundaries, empathy, resilience, and gratitude—without making it feel like a “lesson.”

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
