Everybody has the ability to step up and help those in need. People throughout the world can offer their time, money and love by volunteering. Diamonds in the Ruff is a delightful story about the rewarding world of volunteering, helping those in need, and discovering the inner beauty that is within us all. Readers will cherish this story about a mom and her son volunteering at an animal shelter and their desire to make a difference. They'll be charmed by the son's compassion and his donation of money to the shelters' dog grooming fund that helps "Ruff looking" dogs get groomed. The grooming the fund pays for allows the dog's inner to show, helping them find their forever homes. Readers will be moved by the imagery the words paint and delighted by the fun illustrations. Most of all, they'll discover how each of us has the power to help, and make a difference, and with a little spare change, MAKE ANYTHING POSSIBLE!
