Book Cover & Preview Text
This is a story of a little homeless puppy that no one wanted or liked. He has no name, no owner, no master, no home, and no one to love him. He wanders the back streets looking for anything he can find to eat. Mostly he gets kicked, hit with rocks, or yelled at to “Go away.” He is all alone and sad… But that’s not all. He was present at Jesus’ birth, when the shepherds came, and also His trip to the temple. Even when the wise men came to visit as well as traveling with Jesus to Egypt.

About the Book
In a faraway land two thousand years ago, Joseph and his wife, Mary, arrive at a stable in Bethlehem, grateful for a place to stay for the night; Mary is about to have a baby. As the couple settles in, neither has any idea that a homeless puppy is hiding under a trough in the corner, watching and listening.
The puppy is all alone and sad. He has no name, no owner, and no one who loves him. But in the quiet of the night, something wonderful happens. The baby Jesus is born! Anxious to see what God smells like, the puppy waits for Joseph and Mary to fall asleep and then creeps over to the manger, sniffs the baby, and silently vows to protect the child. After the puppy is discovered, Joseph and Mary name him Judah, the Lion Dog, and invite him on an inspirational adventure that includes a trip to the temple, a visit with the wise men, and a journey with Jesus to Egypt.
The Adventures of Judah, the Lion Dog tells the charming tale of a furry creature who makes it his mission to protect the Christ child and his family as he becomes a friend of God—and God becomes a friend of his.
