Synopsis

People of all ages will enjoy this heart- warming, fun-to-read story written from a dog's perspective. Jessie, an older rescued dog, tells how she was betrayed by a loved one and abandoned by her lifelong family. Through an unusual set of circumstances she's adopted sight-unseen by Ruth, a woman who follows her dreams. It's a fascinating story, as ordinary as it is extraordinary. You'll recognize yourself and every dog you've ever owned while marveling at Jessie's unique journey from being a frightened, sickly, hard-to-place dog to being everyone's darling as a therapy dog and a grinning "poster girl" for a Kids'n'Kritters campaign. This captivating book--an ideal gift for any occasion--is short enough to be read in one can't-put-it-down sitting, yet long enough to be a chapter-by-chapter bedtime story with lots of thoughts to ponder. You'll sniffle, chuckle, sing a song or two, and be encouraged to reach out to others. Proceeds will benefit children and animals in need of loving homes.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Jessie Tschudin may be hard to find in a roomful of black dogs, but she's truly one of a kind. She's a graduate of the First Dog Training Club and certified as both a Canine Good Citizen and an International Therapy Dog. She enjoys hiking, belly rubs, and visiting nursing homes. She hopes the lessons in her book, her "Woof-a-Week" inspirational column, and her first-of-its-kind DogFest fundraiser will help people of all ages--and lots of animals, too. Ruth Tschudin is a writer of books and booklets, a biblical storyteller, and a certified teacher. In 1999 she started Open Doors, an Amazing Grace Foundation in memory of her mother, Grace, in order to glorify God and make a positive difference in others' lives. She enjoys children, animals, and writing . . . and is presently combining all three passions as she pursues her "impossible dream," the Kids'n'Kritters project.
