About The Book

Joel and Jerry are excited to spend their winter break at Grandpa Nappy’s house, but they have to get past a very big guard first. Nappy lives with a German Shepherd named Tazman, who is so protective that some people call him a “devil in disguise.” Since the boys were very little the last time they visited, they don’t remember much. At first, Nappy warns them to be careful, but it doesn’t take long for Tazman to decide he likes his new friends. By nightfall, the boys are wrestling and playing with the big dog right in front of the warm fireplace.

what inside

As they settle in, Nappy shares some exciting news: a huge snowstorm is coming! He predicts the snow will be a foot deep by morning. He invites the boys to go rabbit hunting in the fresh, white snow before they start sledding and playing. Joel and Jerry are so thrilled that they both shout “Yeah!” at the same time. It is the perfect start to a winter they will never forget.
