A tale you won't forget!
Meet Rupert. He's a Frenchie living in New York City, and boy, does he have a bone to pick with stress. The Tail of Rupert isn’t just another day in the dog park. It's the tale of how one small dog confronts the big city buzz with something tiny yet powerful—mindfulness.
Meet Author Hannah Dato
My name is Hannah and I am thrilled to introduce my debut children's book, "The Tail of Rupert: How a Stressed Out Pup Found Peace."
I have devoted over a decade of my career to the field of education as a teacher, assistant principal, and consultant. Throughout my time in schools, I developed a deep passion for early childhood literacy and social emotional learning. It is my hope that "The Tail of Rupert" can marry these two passions and help both children and adults use mindfulness to improve their overall well being.
