The new children’s book “What about Daisy?” Is an inspiring children’s story about a deafblind rescue dog, Daisy, in search of her forever home. Here's a sneak peak to “What about Daisy?” Author Maryam Faresh and her partner Bruce Meade adopted the real Daisy two years ago at only 3 months old. And Louie the cat, another character in the What about Daisy? story, was their first special needs rescue animal.

The inspiration for “What about Daisy?” came after a long challenging day working with Daisy. Maryam & Bruce had been working so hard to gain Daisy’s trust and love but nothing was working, exhausted they went to bed feeling defeated. That night Maryam had a very vivid dream. The next morning she woke up and quickly began to write it down. Two hours later “What about Daisy?” was born.

Maryam realized at that moment that Daisy had opened up her heart in a way she had never expected. She realized she was so busy feeling like a bad mom that she had almost missed the gift right in front of her: The gift of Daisy, just as she was.
