Fanny is a French Bulldog with big ears and an even bigger heart. She loves her human dad but she misses her biological mother. When her longing leaves her ears flapping, she finds herself in the skies and on an adventure, over San Francisco and in a fanciful circus, and hopefully all the way to her mother and then home again. A heartwarming tale about family and home and what that really means, soaring with love 'Fanny the Flying French Bulldog' will charm children and adults everywhere. Anticipated to be the first in a Fanny series with a strong lead character, akin to the lovable pup Henley, of Glitterati Incorporated fame, this book is festooned throughout with gorgeous original illustrations by illustrator Nikita Polyansky and is beautifully presented with a ribbon marker and two gatefolds.

But Fanny had been so exposed to the public in San Francisco, that hundreds of people knew her by name. That made her soar! She was greatly loved." Nelson has worked as a fashion stylist, a photography agent and is co-author Visions of Angels, S Editions, 1998 and is currently a creative director and consultant. He lives in San Francisco, in the home he shared with Fanny. Nikita Polyanski was raised in Russia where he had his first dog, Crazy. "She was crazy and fun and loving and full of adventure. I've been a dog lover ever since."
