I loved the way Ms Furstenberg retells this naval story in the setting of a grandpa and his grandchildren spending time together and he relating Joyful Trouble’s story to them. I thought she did a marvellous job of this loveable dog’s passing – comparing it to the little boy’s kite – even I felt a tinge of sadness for this dog who touched so many lives. I highly recommend this story to be read even to younger children before going to bed, doing so in the same way the story is told – every time the little ones visit granddad, he tells them a little bit more. The chapters are just the right length for such a reading session. I’ve sent the link to my 10-year old granddaughter so that her mother can download a copy for her.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n “This is a wonderful story which tells a wonderful tale about a military service dog whose efforts will warm your heart. As a dog lover and trainer, it never seems to surprise me how loyal and dedicated ordinary dogs are. They make such a wonderful impact in our lives. However, when these dogs are serving alongside our soldiers and sailors, defending our country, their heroic tales are more inspirational. I think the author tells this story very well. It is relatable and I’m sure many children will gain a lot from reading it. It is a great read for adults too!”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Very cute book that I read to my 7 year old daughter and she loved it. Fully recommend to any children, and not just dog loving children.”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n “A wonderfully skilled blend of fact and fiction, beautifully narrated, and really touches on the important things in life.”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Such a heartwarming, lovely story. Great for all ages. A cute twist on a true story. Like all of her books, you feel good when you read it.”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Such a well written and heart warming story for all children. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Captivating read from the first page!”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n You might enjoy reading more about my children’s books <\/a>or some Haiku<\/a>, <\/a>some about dogs too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Joyful Trouble, Bestseller and Most Gifted Book on Amazon UK.

This heart \u2013 warming story is definitely about friendship and the strong bond that links men and dogs\u2026and what a better \u201clens\u201d to see the beauty of this friendship than a story told by a Grandfather to his sweet little grandchildren\u2026!
But this story is most of all about the transforming power of love. Even the title talks about this: even though at the first sight the words \u201cjoy\u201d and \u201ctrouble\u201d are mutually exclusive, the situation changes under the magic touch of love\u2026.and becomes \u201cjoyful trouble\u201d..
I definitely recommend this book for both children and adults: each generation will find its message and certainly feel better after reading this well told story!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Really funny and excellent likeable characters, especially the little brother Tommy. A charming read for those of us who understand the joys and pains of owning dogs.
Well worth a read, you won’t be disappointed. :-)”<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"Joyful](\"http:\/\/alluringcreations.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Joyful-Trouble-add-jpg-large.jpg\")
