In her Building Character with Booger and Bella series, Larisa Coffman teaches children about how to be principled people using a favorite topic: animals.
These character education books use the point of view of Booger and his friend Bella to discuss character traits on a level that kids can understand.
The narrator is Booger the dog, who takes kids through his past to show them exactly how he learned what compassion means. His humorous introduction demonstrates that he has spunk and is a spitfire ("My name is Booger Coffman. Yep...that's right. Booger. You may laugh at that name but it's the coolest name EVER.").
