A CBC Book's Hot Off the Press title!

Sammy knows ALL about dogs. So when Gertie joins his family, he knows exactly what she'll love! Except Gertie doesn't like chasing balls or squeaky toys, and she does not enjoy cuddles. Sammy realizes that not all dogs are the same. But that's okay. He'll work hard to figure out what Gertie really likes.

Written and illustrated by debut author Siski Kalla, this book delicately explores the theme of autism, introversion, shyness, being different, and accepting that being different is okay. With its charming illustrations and touching narrative, children will easily recognize a piece of themselves and identify with the main characters.

Gertie Is Not All Dogs is also available in Spanish as Gertie no es como todos los perros.

A sweet story about embracing differences in others. For children ages 5 years and up.

About the Author
Siski Kalla (1972) is a children's book author/illustrator from the UK. Born into a storytelling family with Nordic, German and English roots, she has always loved imagining characters, settings and stories but only began illustrating 15 or so years ago. Being diagnosed autistic quite late in life, Siski wanted to write stories that might help children navigating neurodiversity, for themselves or those around them. Although Siski has illustrated titles such as I Don't Like Birthday Parties (Welbeck Children), Gertie is Not All Dogs is the first book she has both written and illustrated (Clavis Publishing) making it her author-illustrator debut.
