Parental Guidance:
The hardcover edition of this book includes one instance of mild language and another instance, in which one character calls out the Lord's name in surprise, when a little white dog walks into the room. If this makes you feel uneasy, please choose the paperback edition or the e-book. Both instances have been removed in these, so that all paperback and digital editions sold by Amazon are free of potentially objectionable language.
Guarantee: If you buy the paperback edition and Amazon should, for some unlikely reason, send you the unedited paperback version - please contact timmi(at)timmitobbson.com and we will exchange it for free.
