Resumen del Editor

Cedric – Footprints in the Sand is an epoch dog tale. Inspired by the true
story of a shipwrecked Newfoundland dog who wandered into a small
coastal village. Finding his way to the end of a pier, he would spend the
remainder of his years rescuing twenty-three people from other
shipwrecks.

During the Victorian Era, the great English painter, Sir Edwin Landseer,
did a portrayal of the dog with the sea and gulls behind him. However,
it was painted thirty years after the dog had died and there is little known
about this remarkable creature. With a spark of creative industry, Barry
Stebbing began filling in many of the blanks in this masterful tale of
historical fiction believing it is a true classic in the making.

Cedric is a delightful listen for all ages. Written with a touch of prose, it
allows the listener's imagination to wander into a wonderful era. Along
with following Cedric as he fights his way through tumultuous seas to
rescue shipwrecked souls, the listener follows the life of a young aspiring
artist and that of many other intriguing Dickens-like characters, traveling
through various chapters with a soft flow of faith and romance.

Animal stories invariably have a way of touching one’s heart and the
author’s purpose is to bring the listener to a sublime place above the
mundane cares of the world; to ponder upon things that are good, and
pure, and uplifting, long after the final tick.
