Help Bring MORE Magic to Life!

Books #2 The Merry Mission, and Book #3 Sassy’s Caddy are written but we need illustrations. The Stephen plush went through some stages but he needs to look like the images Lolousi has perfectly created.  This takes time, effort and financial support to make this happen, and I need your help! Every donation brings us closer to making these dreams a reality. Thank you for your belief and support!

Hi!  I’m so glad you are here! That must mean you love a good story- and lucky for you, I happen to be an expert at telling them. I am a magical bear with a very important job: sharing the stories of Sassy and her very unique friendships. Follow us all through the wonderful world of Sassy and the Belief Tree. I am the voice, but the real story comes from Deanna J. Arndt. Her dream is to show anything is possible when you believe!

My purpose is to introduce Sassy the flying pig!  She is gassy and her farts glow! 

Deanna never gives up! She has amazing friends who are always giving her support. 

Her creative mind and imagination teaches us to find pupose, be helpful and kind.

I love rhyming and making people laugh. Deanna has given me her gift to share and I am very proud of her!

Sassy’s adventures will keep you on your toes.  She will also understand if you want to plug your nose!

Every Sassy Story has hidden keys and a yellow butterfly for kids and parents to find together. When you seek you find.  When you set goals you learn to take one step at a time. The key to happiness is in the mirror. The yellow butterfly reminds us we are never alone. 

When you use your gifts and have helpful friends anything is possible!
Never give up!  Believe you can and you will!  Thank you all!


A Letter From Deanna

Dear readers,

I’m excited to introduce the first-ever plush Sassy! She is 16” tall and is the perfect companion to have while you DREAM BIG!

Sassy will be your friend for life!

I was only able to order 150 of her and they will only be sold locally because I cannot ship her.  I am trying to figure out a way to take pre-orders and if I raise enough interest I will order more.  Please contact me.  Share your thoughts. Reviews of the book are priceless and I would love to hear from you all.

Thank you for your support.

Live a WONDER-FILLED Life!

Deanna J Arndt
