Ember is here to help out with your High Republic reading.

You might not expect a fire-breathing charhound to make a good protector for your favorite books, but Ember is the perfect doggo for the job! With paper, glue, and a template, you can make a one-of-a-kind bookmark inspired by one of the breakout stars of The High Republic.
