Hi, my name is Silly Billy and maybe we have met each other at the library.
I am a cocker spaniel, which is a kind of dog that runs under bushes to make birds fly up in the air so that hunters can see them. I am not a very good hunter, though, because I don’t like scaring birds.
I was born far away in a place called Canada, near the North Pole. Before I came to live with my Mommy I was busy winning dog shows. I won a lot of blue ribbons, but I didn’t enjoy that life. I wanted to spend time with children and have fun.
So my Mommy helped me to learn how to be a good dog so that I could visit libraries and meet lots of boys and girls who read to me. I love it when children read to me, sometimes I even fall asleep.
Can you leave me a note and tell me what books you are reading?
I hope you come and visit me at the library. See you soon!!
Silly Billy

Hi, Billy
I am reading War and Peace since I never did the required reading in school…I would be glad to read it to you….next book will be Tale of Two Cities followed by Waiting for Godot….are you asleep yet??? You are the cutest dog!!!
Dear Mom-Kelly, Thanks for visiting my page. I work very hard to make you proud of me. Dear Mommy-Keely, People tell me all the time that I am pretty and I tell them that I look just like my Mommy-Keely. Dear VU Alum, My Mommy has read A Tale of Two Cities to me. I like how it opens with "It was the best of times…" but I didn't like the lady who knitted. I'll ask her about War and Peace. Keep reading!!
Great job Billy! I'm very proud of you!
