This is the sweet story of a college student sent to pick up a dog for his parents only to discover a frightened boxer abandoned in a crate-left behind by the very people who were supposed to love him. The boy doesn't walk away. He kneels. He stays. And together, they begin a quiet journey of healing neither of them expected. With more than 100 expressive drawings, The Boy, the Boxer, and the Yellow Rose is a Christian fable told with gentle honesty that explores the sacred space between pain and hope-that place where love shows up and refuses to let go. Tucked within its pages are dozens of healing truths for anyone who's ever felt boxed in by heartbreak, loneliness, or sorrow too deep to name. If something in this story feels achingly familiar-if you've been holding it together on the outside but quietly falling apart on the inside-please don't stay hidden. You don't even have to whisper, "Come find me." Because love is already on its way. It's right here in these pages, ready to meet you where you are-and walk with you toward healing.
