Bestselling Author Jody Sharpe Tackles Animal Rescue and Bullying in New Novel

Bestselling author Jody Sharpe has announced the release of her sixth book in the Mystic Bay Series, 'The Dog Who Came For Christmas, An Angel's Tale'. The novel intertwines Sharpe's personal passions for animal rescue and anti-bullying with her recurring theme of angels living among humans on Earth.

Sharpe, a retired special needs teacher, has long been an advocate for animal welfare and has taken a firm stance against bullying. These life-defining topics are central to her latest work, which follows the story of Gayle Force Knight, a meteorologist and psychic who receives an angelic vision about rescuing a dog.

The novel explores the journey of Gayle and her husband Alex as they embark on a mission to save multiple animals, encountering unexpected twists and turns along the way. Sharpe's narrative emphasizes the presence of angels guiding the characters through their adventures, a hallmark of her Mystic Bay Series.

In a recent blog post, Sharpe described the book as 'a love letter to all the animals my husband, Dave and I have rescued over many years and the animals our own children and friends have rescued.' She also drew parallels between animal abuse and bullying, stating, 'Those who treat our children poorly are clearly those who could also be animal abusers.'

Sharpe's work has garnered significant recognition in the literary world. She recently received an honorable mention in the 2024 National Federation of Press Women's Professional Communication contest for her novel 'Summer of Angels'. This marks her fourth NFPW win, with previous accolades for '20 Moon Road, An Angel's Tale', 'Town Of Angels Christmas', and 'Special Needs Children, The Angels On My Shoulder'.

The Mystic Bay Series has consistently explored themes of angelic intervention in human affairs, psychic abilities, and the triumph of kindness over adversity. Sharpe's books often feature characters who possess supernatural gifts or angelic qualities, using their abilities to help others and combat negative forces in their community.

In addition to her fiction work, Sharpe has authored a memoir titled 'Special Needs Children, The Angels On My Shoulder', based on her 25-year career teaching children with special needs. The book, which placed second in the National Federation Of Press Women's At-Large Communication contest, offers insights into the challenges and rewards of working with special needs students.

Sharpe's commitment to spreading positivity extends beyond her books. She maintains a 'Tuesdays With The Angels' section on her website, where she shares real-life encounters with angels submitted by readers. This interactive feature allows fans to engage with the themes of her work and share their own spiritual experiences.

As Sharpe continues to expand the Mystic Bay Series, her blend of supernatural elements with real-world issues offers readers a unique perspective on addressing societal challenges. By intertwining themes of animal welfare, anti-bullying, and angelic intervention, she creates narratives that not only entertain but also inspire readers to consider their role in creating a more compassionate world.

For those interested in exploring Sharpe's work, her books are available at online retailers, and more information can be found at her website. Readers are also encouraged to submit their own angel stories for potential inclusion in future 'Tuesdays With The Angels' features at the submission page.
