meet copper
Copper is a real potcake dog - she is one of many mixed-breed island dogs found across the Caribbean. Living in The Bahamas, her everyday adventures, curiosity, and big heart inspired the Copper the Potcake stories. Through Copper's world, children are introduced to island life, local wildlife, and the idea that families come in many forms.
