Books with title The Adventures of Jack and Dobbie: The Beginning

  • The Adventures of Jack and Jim

    C. Gordon Thomas

    Hardcover (Trafford Publishing, Jan. 31, 2008)
    During the great depression, before the advent of gang wars or dope, work was not easy to find, if not impossible. It was a catastrophic period where people in this great country of ours were drawn together because they were all in the same boat. Neighbor helped neighbor. It was not be unusual for a neighbor to borrow a cup of sugar, if they had it, from the lady across the street. Nor would it be unusual for a family member to walk two miles out of his way to save three cents. It is in this atmosphere that our story takes place. The scene is Indianapolis, Indiana and at times Danville, Illinois, but it could be any other part of the United States. Jack and Jim are two young, newly teenage boys in their formative years who are not fully aware of the calamitous period they are living in. The boys find themselves immersed in a tangle of exciting and sometimes frightening adventures. They think of ways they can earn money to help themselves and their parents. It seems almost natural. Therein lies the beauty of their story. Each chapter is based upon the real episode with a small amount of fiction added. The enduring friendships and the things of value in life emerge as the boys challenge the unknown. Young people search for the experiences like these because of the excitement. Lessons can be learned. The story illustrated how the freedom to make unregimented decisions within reason during childhood can help to develop integrity and mature young minds. Some of the stunts are somewhat dangerous and probably should not be attempted.
  • The Adventures of Jack and Dobbie: The Beginning

    Shirley A. Scott

    Paperback (AuthorHouse, Jan. 22, 2009)
    This is the first book in a series about Jack and Dobbie, two Chihuahuas, who became "brothers" by adoption. The series begins at the point where Dobbie, who was previously abused, is adopted through a local animal rescue group as a playmate for Jack. The events are true and most of the pictures were drawn from actual photographs. The book is intended to be read as a pleasant bedtime story of about six minutes in length, or a book that beginning readers can enjoy by themselves. It is a story about love in the lives of two little dogs.

    Hey, my name is Chris Burke Jr. Had some time off from work seeking God’s will and I decided to learn how to work a 3D program called Blender. Thought of what I could do with my new found talent and I couldn't think of anything better than doing something to teach young kids and adults about the fundamentals of being a Christian. So I hope you enjoy this comic style book, I also hope to learn and grow as I endeavor to create this series. Thanks and God Bless.
