Excerpt from Officer Buckle and Gloria

"When he finished Safety Tip Number Ninety-nine, DO NOT GO SWIMMING DURING ELECTRICAL STORMS!, the students jumped to their feet and applauded. 'Bravo! Bravo!' they cheered. Officer Buckle bowed again and again. That night, Officer Buckle watched himself on the 10 o'clock news. The next day, the principal of Napville School telephoned the police station. 'Good morning, Officer Buckle! It's time for our safety speech!' Officer Buckle frowned. 'I'm not giving any more speeches! Nobody looks at me anyway!'",

Officer Buckle learns the value of Gloria, his police dog, and creates safety tip number 101: Always stick with your buddy. The illustrations will tickle your funny bone and make you laugh out loud.
