Q&A

Q: Have you always wanted to write a children's book?
A: No it never really crossed my mind.  I was prompted by God in various ways, and I thought well I could write a children's story and then looked at my dogs and it went from there.

Q: How do you hope that your book impacts children?
A: I  pray that when reading Bo Bo children will feel the love and know that they are loved and loved by God. Also, they can get an understanding on giving and receiving love.

Q: Can adults learn something from the book?
A: Yes, I believe adults can learn that it is the simple things that can have a big impact in life.  Also, the importance of creating a strong family bond, and know that they to are loved by God.

At the present moment in time, in our world I believe that love needs to be presented more often, especially to our little people.  Life can be confusing enough but their minds and heart need to know they are loved. God’s love is;

  1. Unconditional & Sacrificial love: how the love of God is not a reaction to human merit but a free and generous gift.
  2. Overcoming & Persistant love: how no barrier can prevent God from reaching those He loves.
  3. Transformative & Causative love: how God’s love is the cause of human love.
