Take Your Mama to Work Today by Amy Reichert

Violet's babysitter is sick today so she is headed to work with Mama.  Violet is a BIG (sarcasm) help at Mama's work!  She makes sure everyone know she is there!  She gives pointers to the boss for his presentation.  She helps answer the phone in her own "special" way.  And she is able to make shredding paper very festive!  How does Mama's office survive on days when Violet is not there?  Funny text along with hilarious illustrations makes for a great read aloud for both kids and adults.  (Adults may actually find it more enjoyable.....)

Lola Goes to Work: A Nine-to-Five Therapy Dog by Marcia Goldman

Meet Lola, an adorable little dog that works hard every day as a therapy dog.   In order to be a therapy dog, Lola had to learn certain skills.  After all her training she had to take a test to prove she could be a good therapy dog.  Each day while she is working Lola visits friends in their homes or schools and tries to cheer them up.  Younger children will enjoy this simple book with amazing (and sometimes funny) photographs to compliment the text.  Great introduction for kids that have never heard/seen therapy dogs.
