Love. Fear. Joy. Anxiety. Buddy, a Boston terrier, and Sable, a miniature schnauzer, demonstrated these feelings from day to day. Eureka! Sharon had an idea! Buddy and Sable would socially and emotionally support children and connect them to the realities of life. Many thanks go to Sharon's dear friend and neighbor, Nolan Haynes, owner of Buddy and Sable, for allowing her to use them as characters and bring her stories to life. Sharon had a wonderful opportunity interacting with Buddy and Sable and has written about their delightful personalities.
