Jimmy Wayne Releases His First Children's Book Ruby The Foster Dog November 1

When Ruby, an adorable mixed-breed puppy with an underbite, gets mixed up in a daring attempt to help foster kids, she learns that love can overcome any obstacle ... even a broken heart. Abandoned in a shelter as a puppy, Ruby wonders if she’ll ever be adopted by a family. When a goofy looking, scruffy-faced man wearing ski goggles in the middle of the summer stops by the shelter, he adopts Ruby. Mr. James was not the family she was expecting, but could he still be the answer to her prayers?

Mr. James (known as Jimmy Wayne to his Country music fans) is walking halfway across America to raise awareness for the thousands of foster children who desperately need help. Ruby realizes that she’s not so very different from these kids: she’s scared and alone. If she doesn’t have help, she can’t have hope either. Mr. James wants to change all that, for her and for every foster kid in the United States.

On their adventure, Mr. James teaches Ruby about integrity, honesty, loyalty, faith, forgiveness, and trust, but mostly she learns how love can rescue someone and forever change lives. As they walk along historic routes and locations throughout the United States, Ruby quietly helps Mr. James overcome the issues he’s been struggling with too. By the time they get to Phoenix (from Nashville) both of their lives are changed for the better.
