An amusing children’s charity story to raise funds and increase low -cost charitable vet care provisions where treatment has become inaccessible to many, and animals suffer as a result. Hercules the dog is very special to a little boy but also very sick and his family cannot afford the treatment he needs to make him well. The mother is reluctant to accept charity, but her young son and the neighbour help her realize that charity is not a bad thing and is really just about people helping each other out in different ways, just as she often helps others. Her son helps in his own way by undertaking a sponsored march to raise vital funds for the vet care charity who helps to make his dog well. His actions are inspirational and well received by the community, encouraging others to use their own talents, interests and abilities, to help others and make the world a better place. I need book illustrations asap to reflect the characters and story. I am really hoping to get the book published in time for Christmas sales. Many thanks Much appreciated.
