The Great Chili Con Carne Cook-Off (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798989620111)

The Great Chili Con Carne Cook-Off is a charming story about learning life lessons in a very unexpected way. Teddy the Terrier, has won the prestigious title of Chili Con Carne King every year at the annual Cook-Off, held at the Grand Hall in Downtown Puppytown. He owes his success to his special SECRET INGREDIENT!

But Teddy's plans are soon dashed the day before the event, when Teddy's brother Mulligan, whose "tummy is always grumbly," has eaten all of the SECRET INGREDIENT, leading Teddy on a frantic search in hopes of finishing his prize-winning recipe to win the Cook-Off and claim his title again.

The story focuses on how, in those times when life sometimes doesn't go our way, we can practice letting go and finding forgiveness and kindness with others.

Teddy and Mulligan were real life pals that came to our family as young pups, and we spent many years together sharing love and countless adventures. They will always remain in our hearts and be remembered in our stories. This book is dedicated to them both.
