A REAL HERO!
This week, my daddy read me the best story!It's called, "Yorkie Doodle Dandy!"
It's about a miniature Yorkshire Terrier that
was a hero during World War II.
Normally, I don't care for war stories and war movies.
But this was really good!
FOUND IN THE JUNGLES OF NEW GUINEA IN 1944,
SMOKY, a four-pound Yorkie, was bought by Bill Wynne for
$6.44 American. He taught her many tricks, and she entertained
troops in camps and hospitals from Australia to Korea.
It was not long before she became a hero . . .
I don't want to give away too much, but
it's a wonderful story for any animal lover.
And you can buy it direct for $12 and get a copy
personally signed! And it's available through
our Amazon link for about $11.
Yorkie Doodle Dandy is not just another story of a man and his dog.
It is a real life story of a miracle and what is meant to be will be.
You will laugh and you will cry.
Enjoy.
