Willie’s Gift Awareness Tour is presented in partnership* with Clairmarie H. Field and The Children’s Book Review.
Join us as we kick off the virtual book tour for Willie’s Gift by Clairmarie H. Field—a charming and uplifting tale about a little Yorkie with big ears and an even bigger journey toward self-acceptance.
Meet Willie, a silky beige and rust-colored Yorkshire terrier puppy who’s not quite like the other dogs in his training class. Born with unusually large ears, Willie can’t help but feel different—and a little unsure of where he fits in. But with curiosity, determination, and a heart full of hope, Willie sets off to discover what makes him special. Willie’s Gift is a heartwarming story about self-acceptance, finding confidence, and embracing what makes us unique.

Sweet, loving, and obedient, Willie the Yorkshire terrier is the perfect character to teach young readers about the importance of listening to others, as well as about self-acceptance and finding a purpose in life.
Readers who join us on this virtual tour have the chance to win a hardcover copy of Willie’s Gift. Don’t miss your chance to bring this inspiring story home—enter below!
