My Thoughts:

This is a short and cute little story about an adorable Husky named Diesel. The doggie loves to explore and finds a magic crystal that gives it superpowers.

Let me specify that this is a picture book and not an illustrated one. It has photos (not art). I’m not sure if real images have been edited (the author couple has huskies and one of them is Diesel) or if some are AI-generated. A couple of the images do look AI-ish. If you go into the book expecting ‘illustrations’, you will be disappointed. The cover is the right indicator of what to expect. 

The story is straightforward and is written in two to three lines under each image. This makes it easy for younger ones to read. There’s a moral lesson too, which parents can discuss with their kiddos.

The book is set up to be the first in the series. Diesel the Husky will go on to have many more adventures. I hope the plots for the next books become a little more intricate as it adds to the fun element. Right now, the story is a bit too simple.

The author has dyslexia, and his wife helps him improve his reading and writing abilities. I applaud the author duo for pursuing what they love and sharing their work with the public. Best wishes to them.

About the Authors – Perry and Rosie Tobin

Perry is a 31-year-old author from Somerset. He has always struggled with dyslexia but was always fascinated with books. He dedicated his free time, to learning to read through his disability, and in spite of the challenge.

He gained custody of his two children the same year he met his partner, Rosie.

Rosie at the time had two children, the youngest being home-schooled, due to no spaces in local schools. So, along with their three youngest children, Rosie helped Perry with his reading and, understanding of the English language. Even though it took some time, he, along with their children fell madly in love with books, and the adventures of reading.

Rosie is a 35-year-old author from Somerset. She is the youngest of three girls and has two children (now four.). Her favourite books are the Night World series by L.J Smith, although she is still, keenly awaiting the final book. She met her partner in 2018, and moved her little family to Somerset, including her beloved husky, Diesel. She loved teaching her children to read, and now watching them fall in love with stories and literature.

Together they turned their love of reading, to creating. Always having loved animals, now having five cats and two huskies. So basing adventures around their pets, mainly their cherished boy. Keeping his memory alive forever. Comprising a series of short stories, to help other children learn to read, or parents to enjoy fun bedtime stories.

Children eventually grow up, and no longer want bedtime stories. Parents and children alike will always cherish the memories, and stories that were read the most. Eventually, passing the same books, memories, and characters down to the new generations. Like Biff and Chip.

Debut books, The Magical Adventures of Diesel the Husky.
