The Puppy Named Gus suddenly came to me as I was driving through Chicago. I decided to write the story and present it to my grandchildren; Evan, Colin and Torrey and recent granddaughter Morgan Ruth McClain. The unillustrated copy as Christmas gifts. My hope is that they and other children might be inspired by Gus and Charley that they overcome fear and doubt-believe in themselves, follow their heart and dreams to find happiness. Hope you enjoy Gus & The Circus Pony & Others that will follow. Grandpa Bill | A Puppy Named Gus And The Circus Pony by William McClain, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
