The Challenge...
Finding Time
In a world of endless "busy", finding quality time is low on the priority list for the sake of production.
Limiting Technology
Technology, while a valuable tool, also steals quality time from our loved ones. Opportunities are lost when technology takes over times of intimacy with our loved ones.
Fighting Culture
It's no secret culture is against Biblical principles, and even teaching kids anti-Biblical principles. Overcoming this becomes harder by the day.
We Get It...
We understand how it feels to...
Find stories that either miss a teaching opportunity, or don't teach anything at all
Get wrapped up in technology and miss the opportunity of time with family
Have books that don't captivate you or your children for the long haul
Have children's books not based on Scripture alone, but either Scripture plus something else or culture
This is why
Dannie the Dalmatian exists:
to teach children and adults alike Biblical principles and values.
How We Deliver
A Captivating Story
Quality books begin with a story that captivates a specific audience.
Anchored in the Bible
The Bible is our source of teaching, not cultural norms or ideas. We do our best to build on Biblical ideas and principles, while adding nothing to it.
Teaching about Jesus and Christ-like Living
We believe when a person encounters God through various media, like books, this leads to an opportunity to learn about Christ-like living and begins the journey to an abundant life.

Inspired by Mark 12:30-31, a Dalmatian family helps their young puppy, Dannie, interact with other dogs at the dog park and learn where his identity comes from. Having no spots at birth, customary for Dalmatians, Dannie is filled with a spirit of adventure and curiosity, but he doesn’t know he looks different until he meets other Dalmatian puppies who already have their spots. Dannie attempts to fit in and be accepted by the other Dalmatian puppies; however, he must navigate the consequences of deception and shame he has brought on himself. Despite this, Mommy and Poppy, as well as a special friend, help Dannie understand his identity comes from God, and that no one, no matter what they think or say, and no circumstance can change that truth.Perfect for any reading times: nap, bed, story, or any time in between — Dannie the Dalmatian provides a valuable teaching opportunity of Christian values and principles that help create an abundant life.
