The story of one mailman, a few dogs, and the power to bring joy back to a grieving communityinspired by a celebrated WWII veteran.   

George lives a peaceful life on his family farm in Indiana until he is recruited for the US army for WWII. While George longed to go back home throughout the war, home is a very different place when he returns. His family farm has been sold and George must find a new job. Though he swore he would never wear a uniform again, George becomes a letter carrier. Then, something unexpected and miraculous happens—friendly neighborhood dogs begin following him on his daily route. As the parade of dogs quickly grows each day, so too does the joy spread in a community still healing from loss.  

John Spray’s stepfather is the inspiration behind the character George, who was a celebrated WWII veteran and post-war letter carrier—loved by both the people and dogs in his small town, Lafayette, Indiana. Scot Ritchie illustrates with powerful depth and humor.  .
