Book Description
One of the best days of the year was here at last! It had snowed during the night and the whole town would attend the annual sledding party. Everything was perfect until the town bully showed up and did what bullies do. He was mean to the other kids and ignored his parent's warnings about the thin ice on the pond. When the unthinkable happened, who came to the rescue? Who could save this boy? This story teaches youngsters that being a bully is not a good way to act. It also shows how one big rescue dog with a heart full of love stepped up and became a hero. The bully realized that being mean gave him nothing but loneliness and he'd rather have friends.

The best of PJH's short stories, blogs, poems, and other essential reading all in one collection! Finally! When a longtime associate and friend of Mr. Paul John Hausleben approached the master storyteller and suggested that it was time to put together a collection of all his essential short works and other material into one book, the author balked at the suggestion. "There is not enough material," was his initial reaction. However, when they sat down and went over the voluminous amount of work that PJH has written over his career, it was obvious that there was more than enough material. After sifting through the mountains of writings, Mr. Hausleben picked out his best from the best and it is to the sheer delight of his readers that this collection is finally a reality. Here is the definitive collection of work by Paul John Hausleben that his readers and fans have waited for! This collection contains all of PJH's essential short works, the best of his blogs, his poems, and even a few previously unreleased short stories, blogs, and poems, unlocked from the confines of his seemingly never-ending story vault.
