Also included is a one hour DVD showing Linda completing an egg from start to finish.

A Tale of Two Dogs

You may not be aware, but Linda has also written a book totally un-related to egg art to raise funds for the Save our Spaniels charity. In 1999 Linda and Graham adopted two Brittany spaniels which had been rescued from Spain by the charity. 

Their lives have never been quite the same since! ‘A Tale of Two Dogs - The adventures of Cressie and Leo’ tells the story of their early days both in foster care with Nicky and with Linda and Graham. 

The story is written by Cressie and has been described as funny, poignant, tongue in cheek and a book that had to be read from cover to cover. All the profits from the sale of the book go to the charity. 

Each copy is GBP £10 plus postage. Contact Linda to order.
