Children and adults alike will delight in the stories of Mortimer & Teasdale's Adventures. Rosemary Jameson has written an endearing series of tales with compassion, humor and profound insight highlighting problems and situations that children, adults and families encounter throughout life. Follow the lives of two precocious spaniels, Mortimer and Teasdale, who live on a farm with an unforgettable cast of characters -- there's the Edwards family, their cat and her kitten, Cookie. Tony-the-Pony is the rescue animal the family adopts. Next door is Bella, the black Lab and her owner, Jim. Bella's friend is Flip-Flop the donkey who has a chronic hoof problem! Teasdale is forever getting into mischief while Mortimer prefers to stay out of the spotlight. As Jameson describes in one chapter, "Teasdale was dismayed by the turn of events and he thought it best to lie down under the table until it all blew over." Children will recognize themselves in the personalities of these adorable dogs and parents will welcome stories that embody traditional values with a healthy dose of sweet nostalgia.
