Tuesday Tucks Me In
Tuesday Tucks Me In: The Loyal Bond between a Soldier and His Service Dog | Luis Carlos Montalván, Bret Witter
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
As narrated by Tuesday, Tuesday Tucks Me In is a day in the life of this service dog extraordinaire and tail-wagging ambassador for all things positive and uplifting in the world. The book takes us through a typical day of adventures, starting with Tuesday waking military veteran Luis Carlos Montalván in the morning and greeting him with dog breath in the face, and then ending with Tuesday cuddling up to Luis on their bed, the last moment they spend together before sleep.

5â­ï¸ This is a look at the life of a service dog. What I really like is that this pup is in service to a vet for PTSD. It covers some of the typical things other service dog books do, as well as looking specifically at veterans. A wonderful and educational story.

This nonfiction book, Tuesday Tucks Me In by Luis Montalván and Bret Witter, won the Best Nonfiction Children‘s Book in 2014 and would be a good LC book. Luis came home after serving for his country and everything that was once a routine scared him, until he met a furry friend named Tuesday. Tuesday gives Luis company during the busy days they have together, but with all of the work comes leisure?? #DogLover #CuteBook

DianaHerrera In their LC groups the students will read the book and list the things that a service dog does in the story (example: picks up items). The students will next list the things a therapy dog does from the story (example: provides comfort). Students will discuss amongst themselves and describe the differences between the two and how it can be paired with people. 6y
DianaHerrera When they are done, they can create a Venn-diagram, which I would recommend instead of listing, to compare and contrast between service and therapy dogs. If the students have extra time, they can draw pictures and decorate their flip chart to be displayed. 6y

DianaHerrera UDL 3.1: Students will use what they know to help compare that to the new information they learn in this activity about service/therapy dogs. EL 30: The instructor will encourage the students to use Venn-diagrams and drawings as aids to identify the differences between service dogs and therapy dogs. #UCFLAE3414SuB18 6y

Gabylaurel10 This seems like a really good book! You could even have therapy dogs come into class so they can explain why they help so much! 6y
RossoS Sounds like a wonderful book to share with students! This book would be great to show students a non fiction text presented in a different way. I really liked the resource you provided which has students using the text to compare and contrast device dogs vs. therapy dogs. Great choice! 6y
DianaHerrera Thank you everyone! 😊 6y
