Trouble with Lubble is patterned after the parable "Ninety-Nine Sheep" in a delightful, poetic rhyme, a not so ordinary shepherd discovers that one of his cantankerous sheep has gone missing. As the story unfolds, its' playful rhythm turns dark and desperate as the lost lamb becomes painfully aware of his tendency towards sin, its' perilous consequences and his dire need for His Shepherd. Children and adult readers alike will automatically identify with the prideful lamb, his choices and will be desirably drawn to the gentleness and grace of our heavenly Shepherd. Jan Dimaggio considers herself abundantly blessed to reside in the beautiful, scenic valley of Meeker, Colorado, loving on her four-legged friends and grand-children. She is passionate about broken children, animals and her Lord Jesus Christ and has taught children's church and volunteered in Awanas for over twenty-five years. Jan currently serves as the Founder/Director of Head 'Em Up Christian Ministries, a non-profit equine therapeutic riding center that focuses on introducing broken children to their Creator and ultimate healer, while utilizing horses as a tool to build relationships and break down walls of desperation and defeat. A bit of kyaking, fishing and hiking rank among the firsts on her wanna-do list when time allows, for which Meeker provides a lovely, year-round playground.
