Book Cover & Preview Text
Pėre rides a Harley! When he’s not flying a plane, he’s on his Harley bike. Unless he’s going on a long bike trip with
his friends, he takes me with him.
I love the wind in my ears and all the attention I
get when we pass cars. That’s when I
really have att-a-tude!
What I DON’T like is being tied onto pėre’s
Harley with a bungee cord!!!!! I think
it takes away from my good looks!
Someday I want my own Harley, where I’m in
control. Then I’ll get a new Harley
hat. The one I wear now is NOT my
choice. Mėre got it for me. It’s too small! I beg her not to make me wear it, but she insists. Sometimes she lets me wear my goggles instead,
but on long rides I have to wear the Harley hat!!! It flattens my beautiful ears!
It’s just too small!!
We ride on big busy highways and on little country
roads, even on dirt roads sometimes.
I get more attention on the big highways. People are just not used to seeing a big red
dog sitting on the back of a motorcycle with a hat and goggles on!
