What My Dog Taught Me About God: Reconnecting with God's Love and Emerging from a Spiritual Wilderness

by Fran A. Wood

Overview

The book details a spiritual journey out of a wilderness experience brought about when the author’s parents both passed away eleven weeks apart in 2001, during which time America was attacked on September 11. About a year later, still struggling to come to terms with the loss, the author acquired a puppy whom she named Bandit. In observing Bandit and her own interaction with him, she began to see some spiritual truths which she has translated into the charming stories that make up the book. This book would make a wonderful gift for animal lovers or for anyone grieving a loss. And here’s something terrific: Unlike many animal stories, the dog does not die at the end. Bandit is alive and well.

About the Author

Born to Christian parents, Fran Wood spent her childhood in Fitzgerald, Georgia, a unique town in the Deep South, originally settled in unity by Northern and Southern soldiers shortly after the Civil War. She moved to Florida as a young woman and spent most of her adult life as a paralegal doing tedious legal research. She was published in a risk management magazine and ghost wrote a column in a local newspaper. Yet, she longed to write meaningful works that would inspire and uplift the reader.

What My Dog Taught Me About God is Fran's first book. It is the product of her spiritual journey following the deaths of her parents within a few weeks' time in 2001, with the 9/11 attack occurring in the middle of that time.

Fran and her husband Jim live in Ellenton, Florida along with their beloved dog, Bandit. They have three sons and three grandchildren.
