From adversity in her family, Sheila suggested to her 12 year old niece that they sit down and write a book about it. The result was the creation of lovable, huggable character her niece named Trouble. Their first book "Here's Trouble" was very successful, Trouble is now a plush toy, inspirational jewelry, and the best part of this story is what Trouble represents to children all around the world. The message behind the storybook is quite simple, Trouble helps kids deal with whatever is troubling them. Trouble the dog gives them someone to hug. When they hug him they smile and don't want to put him down. The second book "Where There's Trouble There's Hope" introduces us to a rescue dog named Hope. The message of this book inspires children to always have hope, to believe in themselves and their dreams. Sheila and Trouble the dog have been featured on CNN- American Journey, MSNBC's - Your Business as a Socially Conscious toy, Radio Entrepreneurs, Magic 106.7 Exceptional Women Entrepreneurs, Success Magazine.
