About the Book

This is a compelling and emotional story about the adventures of a young man named Jeffrey and a ferret named Sunny. It's a wonderfully touching story about the bond that develops between them. As the story unfolds, their loneliness leads to a fateful meeting and a growing friendship. Their emotional journey together starts out with hope, then progresses from there, with twists and turns along the way. Like a roller coaster, the story goes from the heights of fun and frolic to the depths of anxiety and trouble. Just when everything seems all right, things start to go so wrong. There are lessons to be learned, and this is a story that will teach valuable lessons about trust and friendship. It will warm the hearts of children everywhere.

Anyone who owns a ferret can relate to this book. For those who are unfamiliar with these friendly critters, it's a chance to understand the nature of their personalities and behavior. Telling the story and looking at the accompanying photos of Sunny is a way to gain insight into how they interact with others.

Though ferrets have their own unique personalities, they also have a mix of some of the same traits as cats and dogs. You'll first notice that they are naturally quiet and curious. They also have a short attention span, and tend to sleep a lot. Ferrets need plenty of attention and playtime, but can get stressed out if neglected or left alone too long. Once you get to know them you'll see that they can seem stubborn and aloof, yet playful and funny. Ferrets are furry little bundles of joy that are easy to care for, and best of all make such wonderful pets!

About the Author

After being an observer and non-pet owner, I was thrown into the mix because my son was leaving and I couldn't bear the thought of him having to give up his pet ferret to someone else. Since I've grown so attached to this lovable critter, I agreed to take care of him while he was away. Because of the many experiences my son has had with this adorably sweet animal, I decided to write a children's book based on a true story about their adventures and misadventures.
