Bonnie (the library dog)
- gentle
Bonnie lays with Madeline while she reads, putting a paw on her sometimes to comfort her.
- patient
Madeline sees that Bonnie is patient with her because she is not there to correct her, only to listen. She also doesn't feel pressured by Bonnie to be or talk in a certain way which allows Madeline to correct herself.
