Description: Sometimes the best prize of all isn’t a trophy.

The big competition is tomorrow, and Elvis and his friends are anxiously preparing. Which pup will be crowned “Best in Show?” They’ve all been working so hard. Who gets to take home the trophy? 

From bestselling author Chasta Hamilton, The Trophy Trap chronicles the journey of Elvis, a lovable Scottish Terrier, as he competes for a prize that only one dog can claim. From self-assured Laila to over-achieving Betty, each dog is unique and has something special to offer—and overcome. Kids of all ages will learn along with Elvis and his friends to trade comparison, judgment, and burnout for confidence, compassion, and perseverance. An invaluable lesson in self-worth, The Trophy Trap shows that winners don’t always have trophies.
