Multi-Talented Artist/Designer Successfully Launches her First Children's Book "Max, The Shelter Dog"

Brooklyn, NY (PRWeb) January 5, 2007 -- Nicole Rivera, a self-taught artist/designer, has recently utilized her creative talent to self-publish her first children's book, "Max, The Shelter Dog," which sends a strong message on behalf of the misunderstood pit bull, and all sheltered dogs in need.

"Max, The Shelter Dog" is the story of an energetic and playful pit bull surrendered to a shelter by his owners, as told from a dog's perspective. Max is heart broken as he struggles to run after his owner as she flees through the shelter doors. Left behind, Max has no choice but to endure his journey through the shelter system in the hopes of finding a forever home.

"I wrote 'Max, The Shelter Dog' as a way to give back, and say thank you to all the beautiful pit bulls I have met while volunteering at my local animal shelter," Nicole says. "All I knew of the pit bull was that it was dangerous, and I learned this from the media, but after volunteering, I realized that pit bulls are the most loving and affectionate dogs around."

"Max, The Shelter Dog" promotes a positive image of the pit bull as well as the importance of volunteering and adopting from shelters. "It is my hope that children and their parents will be inspired by Max to volunteer at their local animal shelters, meet the pit bull and adopt. Children are our future, and if "Max, The Shelter Dog" can inspire just one child to take action, then the book has done its job. One small child can make a huge difference."

"Max, The Shelter Dog" is available for purchase through Amazon.com, Target.com, Abebooks.com and Alibris.com. Wholesale orders are available through Baker & Taylor and BookSurge Direct. Nicole donates a portion of the proceeds to charities that support the pit bull breed and all animals in need.

Anyone who reads this book will become a pit bull lover, and for those who already are, they will appreciate the breed even more.
