"Gidget is my soul dog. She's the kid I never had!"
Gidget's surfing legacy was the inspiration to write this children's book.
The book focuses on beach, ocean and marine wildlife conservation as Gidget saves various mammals and sea life friends from man's deadly pollution whilst on a surfing exploration.
Gidget bumps into ocean friends like 'Wally The Whale' to rescue him from a mouth full of plastic bottles and trash. Gidget is aware of collecting the garbage from her sea friends and collects the trash herself so she can dispose of the waste in a correct manner when she returns to dry land.
The book has witty charm from collaborator Catherine Large and colorful illustrations by Gary Lister making it a visual good read for children and adults.
Review Quotes
"Surf Gidget the Pug is not only a talented surfer and an inspiration with the Healing Hearts Foundation, but also has her own books that are teaching moments. She continues to inspire with her second book, The Sea Adventures of Surf Gidget the Pug, which is about ocean conservancy.
Thank you for a wonderful book that spotlights conservancy, friendship and doing the right thing to help others. Great book!"

'This is an entertaining read based on the real-life surfing pug, Gidget!
Gidget heads to her favorite surf spot but finds the beach covered in trash. Her seagull pals help her cleans it up.
While out on the waves, Gidget encounters several aquatic reins in distress. For instances, Fin the Dolphin is caught in a fishing net. Whales, crabs, turtles.... they all band together to help each other and clean up their habitat. If only humans could do the same.
Hooray For Gidget!'
