Based on a true story, "Farkle Finds A Furever Home" is a rescue tale about love, acceptance, and never giving up hope. Through lighthearted and realistic storytelling by Wendy Johnson, readers will learn about pet abandonment, overcrowded shelters, and the need for animal rescue.

Farkle's big blocky head and human-like eyes are brought to life through stunningly vivid illustrations by Leslie Harrington. Children and adults alike will find themselves rooting for Farkle, while falling in love with his silly, sweet, and sleepy disposition. A portion of proceeds from every book sale will go to Touch of Grey Rescue, a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization that saves over 100 senior and special needs dogs every year

Wendy Johnson is the President and Founder of Touch of Grey Rescue, a senior and special needs foster-based dog rescue operating out of Brevard County, Florida. Wendy graduated from SUNY Cobleskill with an AAS in Early Childhood Development, and from SUNY Oneonta with a BS in Psychology. "Farkle Finds His Furever" Home is Wendy's first publication and is based on the true story of how her narcoleptic American bully, Farkle, came to her family. Wendy lives in NY with her husband Pete, their daughter Jenny, and their rescue dogs Farkle and Kiara.

'Farkle Finds a Furever Home' is the first book in the "Farkle and Friends" series. This series was developed to bring real-life rescue dogs and their stories to life while hoping to raise awareness about abandoned pets and encourage a larger "Adopt Don't Shop" movement. The second book "T'was the Night Before Pawmas" is scheduled to be released in the Fall of 2023. Wendy is currently writing "Tucker and The Rainbow Bridge".
