Are You A Pineapple?
by Kathryn A. Zolman
Illustrated by Walter Policelli
“
I liked this story; the feeling of happiness and excitement is permeated throughout. It is an exciting time anyway to get a new pet, add naming the pet, and finding the right name makes it all the more special.
“
I am giving Are You a Pineapple? a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who are between the ages of four and eight. I can easily see it on the shelves in elementary school classrooms and in local public children’s libraries.
“
This is such a cute picture book. The illustrations are playful, showing the joy of having a pet and choosing her to be a best friend. At the end of the book the author even shares what inspired the story. Early readers will certainly enjoy this little tale.

Kathryn A. Zolman never expected to write a children’s book, but when Pineapple came into her life and she heard the story of how this sweet, smart dog got her name, she thought it would make a fun book for parents to read to their children. Pineapple is a Bull Mastiff, German Shepherd, Chow mix, and much like a real pineapple, she knows how to stand tall and is very sweet on the inside! Kathryn, along with her husband and daughter, are avid dog lovers.
The family is currently raising a Doberman Pinscher puppy, their fourth Doberman over a course of 30 years. Kathryn is an advocate for not only raising children to respect all animals, but also to be thankful for the pure joy that they bring to our lives. In writing this book, Kathryn seeks to spread a positive message and hopes it will help children express more gratitude in their lives.
