    About this ebook

    Holly Bea's beloved bullmastiff, Buddy, is having a bad day. Left alone to guard the house, he is taunted by the neighborhood cats, who know that he can't touch them. Buddy is worried—will Holly be back soon, or is she gone for the day, or even forever? Much to Buddy's relief, Holly returns. They go to the park, but Buddy's fun is cut short by a pack of hostile squirrels and a team of Dalmatian firedogs who challenge his self-esteem. Will this day ever end? Buddy's day is a metaphor for the doubts and anxieties children face, and a soothing reminder that God will always be there for them.

    Holly Bea

    Holly Bea was inspired to write her first children's book following the birth of her first niece, Katie. The resulting classic spiritual tale, Where Does God Live?, has touched the heart of tens of thousands of children and their parents. In 2002 the book won the Bock Book Award. A graduate of Texas Tech University, Holly has been an advertising copywriter for agencies in Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Silicon Valley, and Tampa. Born in Hawaii and raised in Texas, Holly now lives in Dallas with her husband, Steve, their Sheltie named Lizzie and their goofy Bullmastiff, Buddy. She is the winner of the 2001 Helen Keating Ott Award for outstanding contributions to children's literature from the Church and Synagogue Library Association.
