Hi Roxanna,

My dogs might pray about getting her favorite treat, but they aren't too concerned about smog. That is a cute picture, and it is fun to imagine what a dog might pray about.

- "From the monster (whos) name is Smog?" - whose

This was really cool, Roxanna. The prayer had a good flow to it and it figures that a dog would pray for others first. We could learn a lesson from dogs about unconditional love.

This is very sweet, and I can easily see it being what an animal is thinking. It's filled with a lot of small, telling moments, like the dog being frightened by the "scary pine cones." This was good fun to read, Rox, and the rhymes work well.

This heartfelt prayer could easily be attributed to an animal and in particular to a dog. I enjoyed it very much.

I picked up one spag:
From the monster who's name is Smog? - delete apostrophe from who's.

I enjoyed your animal crackers poem, Rox. The picture is super. I like the rhyming couplets used to make the prayer. I like the way you made some of the verses 2, 1, or 3 lines. The 'things' the dog wishes to do but couldn't because of the fog were super. I could see the little dog doing each one of them. Thanks for sharing a great prayer from the little dog's POV. Jan
