Tuesday Tucks Me In.....

Sharing this from a friend. Thank you Katie!

Tomorrow is Veterans Day.... if you can read this children’s book please do! It’s about Luis Montalvan and his service dog Tuesday. I read it to my classes in honor of Veterans Day and teaching them about nonfiction. I then looked it up because I wanted to see if he wrote anything else. What I found broke my heart....Luis was an army captain who served 2 tours in Iraq (2 bronze stars,purple heart,medal of valor&combat action badge) and was an advocate for service dogs. He suffered from chronic pain and PTSD. In 2016 he took his life. Suicide among veterans is high and I pray that they find the help and peace they deserve. Love our Veterans and take care of them..... what they have sacrificed for us is immeasurable
