Sheldon-a sweet-natured dog with one eye colored blue, one colored brown, and a patch of dark fur in the shape of a heart-finds himself alone in the cold, white wilderness. So begins Sheldon's journey in search of his true home. Along the way, Sheldon discovers many friends in nature who help guide him and some barnyard pals who want to share their barn with him. He also learns that someone is waiting for him.

Snickers the Cat and her human Twyla, who has love in her heart for all animals, live by a flowing river in the house made of wood and stone at a special place called Rivershire. They love each other very much but wish for a friend to live with them. Snickers and Twyla have room for more in their home and in their hearts. As they look out the window at the pine tree with a face in its bark they wonder ... could it be the face of someone that wants to live with them, too?

Enhanced with tender watercolor illustrations, Sheldon's Journey tells a tale of trust, friendship, courage, and-most of all-love. Sometimes, finding one's true home takes a special journey.
