This book would be good for primary students. This book is "The Rough Patch" written and illustrated by Brian Lies, and published in 2018. This book is about a Fox who is a grander and his dog. They are best friends and do everything together until the dog dies and his garden because desolate and full of weeds until a pumpkin vine begins to grow. The vine produces a huge pumpkin thatt wins a contest and he wins a new puppy. I would for sure use this book in my classroom as it has a great message of that even though despair happens, good things always grow out of hard times.… (mer)

A moving tale about an animal character who has a garden. His dog who is also his best friend helps him. The dog dies and is buried in the garden. After a period of grieving, he enters his pumpkin into a contest, The prize is money or a new pup. His love for a new pup wins. Thank you for displaying the video. After watching it, I read the book. The movement in the video gave it a little more. I enjoyed both, but video more!
