#12: Stick Dog Comes to Town

Tom Watson lives in Chicago with his wife, daughter, and son. He also has a dog, as you could probably guess. The dog is a Labrador-Newfoundland mix. Tom says he looks like a Labrador with a bad perm. He wanted to name the dog "Put Your Shirt On" (please don' t ask why), but he was outvoted by his family. The dog' s name is Shadow. Early in his career Tom worked in politics, including a stint as the chief speechwriter for the governor of Ohio. This experience helped him develop the unique, storytelling narrative style of the Stick Dog books. More important, Tom' s time in politics made him realize a very important thing: Kids are way smarter than adults. And it' s a lot more fun and rewarding to write stories for them than to write speeches for grown-ups.
