But if the puppy in Kimberly's story wasn't killed, then I too award her credit where credit is due....

A Conservative Publisher Wants to Be the Answer to Liberal Children’s Books. There’s Just One Problem.

The books aren’t bad, necessarily. They’re just not for kids.

what do you expect from repukes? With that cover it was supposed to be, "A Princess and her puppies" and she's trying to let those "puppies" breath.

There's a whole cottage industry of badly-written children's books that push republican values that partner with conservative "celebrities" like Kevin Sorbo, etc. slapping their names on books as the author to increase their marketability to MAGA-types.
