Description
A Tale of Two Dogs is about two dogs of different breeds and from different countries whose God-orchestrated encounter turns into the most amazing and inspiring friendship.
Mochi is a Shiba Inu born in the Far East region of Japan. She is a hunting dog and an explorer, who is quirky, bold, and very independent. Murphy is a Pug born in the Silk Road region of China. Mochi teaches Murphy gentleness, patience, and self-control, while Murphy shows Mochi that faithfulness, kindness, and goodness go a long way in this world. Their special friendship shows young children how their differences can make them stronger. God made everyone special and unique, but people also have more in common than they think.
A Tale of Two Dogs is a children's book suitable for kids aged three to five that celebrates people's differences as well as their likenesses. It encourages kids to spread kindness like confetti and be good to others and themselves. The Fruits of the Spirit will be reinforced for these young readers and their parents. The confetti will be in the shape of tiny crosses.
Spelling "Dog" backwards is not a coincidence but a "God" wink.
