Author Event – Bessie’s Story: Watching the Lights Go Out – November 23
Saturday, November 23, 2pm – 3:30pm
Join us for an inspiring story about a charming, brave, unpretentious chocolate Lab who gradually loses her eyesight. The author chronologically leads the reader from the original diagnosis of terminal blindness for his beloved four-year-old pet through the two-and-a-half-year transition to sightlessness. In the process, Bessie unwittingly becomes an expert mentor and teacher for the high-wire act of growing older with grace and optimism.
Meet Tom and Bessie. Books will be available for sale and signing.
