When George returns home from WWII, he would have never imagined he could be the one to restore joy in his grieving town. A story about hope, community, and overcoming loss.
The story of one man, and a few dogs, who have the power to bring joy back to a grieving community.


George has returned home from WWII, which has devastated the world. Though he swore he would never wear a uniform again, George becomes a mailman. Then, something unexpected and miraculous happens—dogs begin following him on his daily paper route. This parade of dogs brings joy and life back to a community still recovering from loss.


The author, John Spray, was inspired to write this story based on his own family’s experience during and after WWII.

John Spray grew up in the midwest and spent years as a successful amateur boxer, gym rat, and boxing fanatic. He was a private investigator in Toronto for forty years and was the owner and founder of Mantis Investigation. John’s previous picture book, What Cats Think, received positive reviews from School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and Kirkus. Scot Ritchie is an award-winning illustrator and author with more than 70 books to his credit, including most recently Zander Stays.
