"All That I'm Allowed" by Ellen Harper
All That I’m Allowed is a storybook for grownups about learning to live with children and dogs. In this regard most grown people set out to do what’s best for them, to be good examples, trusted companions to dog and child. But often times the lessons we think we are getting across are interpreted very differently by the receivers. All That I’m Allowed is not only a make-believe romp through these poignant and often funny misinterpretations, but it is also a social commentary on coming to grips with a rapidly changing society and how we attempt to make sense of it all.
Check out the video trailer for Ellen Harper's chapbook, "All That I'm Allowed" created by her son Peter Harper. The chapbook features drawings by Marguerite Millard.
