The Jewel Collar

by Christine Karol Roberts

Overview

The Jewel Collar is the story of a Maltese dog, Aristotle, who moves from the family beach house to a new home so his Mommy, an attorney, can be closer to the Courthouse and train station. It is the Christmas season and Ari is very sad, missing his garden friends. His Mommy gives him an early gift to cheer him up -- a Jewel Collar. Ari decides to share the jewels on his Jewel Collar with new friends in the Floral Park garden including Steve the Squirrel, Mikey the Mallard, and many others. They decorate their garden Christmas tree and decide to call themselves the Garden Friends Club. The lesson learned is that while moving can be a sad experience, a child can make new friends by sharing and without giving a gift.
