Baxter Speaks. Baxter parolas.

Baxter Speaks! is a story (in English, with an Esperanto translation) about a talking dog on a mission to promote the international language Esperanto and to foster international peace. This tale is an amalgam of historical information, fantasy and current reality. Written during the height of the 2020-22 Covid pandemic, it "speaks to" a Covid silver lining during an other wise bleak time.



The story could not have been written without the support of Grandpa (Steve Flanders) and our blended and extended families-namely, the Habers, Flanders, Ryans, and Lushtaks. Baxter, the charismatic family dog, is acknowledged as being the inspiration for this story, and the leader and champion of world peace.
