Create your own can of MUSH - simply save our label (pdf below) and print it out (be sure to print the pdf at actual size) wrap it around any can from your pantry and you're ready to go!
This is so great of you to share before bookweek. Thank you! FYI is there a typo on the Mush can label? It says "Is your dog a rut?" Is that supposed to be "Is your dog a runt*?" ;-)
