My husband and I lived in Arlington, VA, for 15 years, in a cozy condominium until they retired. While we were there, my husband's health took a slight turn and he spent some time recovering. As he convalesced, he watched the neighbors around the block walk their dogs along the sidewalk from the living room window. Valentine's Day was quickly approaching and I thought to surprise him with a stuffed animal. I ventured out to our department store and purchased a stuffed puppy and some chocolates to comfort him. He was delighted when I presented him this surprise. This small gesture of love seemed to ease the desire for an animate dog. It was actually my husband's illness and passion for dogs, that inspired me to write a series of books under the umbrella of "Buster's Big Adventure's." My first book, "A Puppy's Special Day," is almost true to life. “Buster's Big Surprise” is the second book of five more under this series.
