Jack and Jill were badly mistreated by their stepmother, who fed the dog more than she fed the children. When they decide to run away, little do they know that their stepmother is a witch who has enchanted all the waters of the forest. When Jack drinks from a brook, he turns into a deer and eventually leads Sister Jill to King Philpot, whom she marries. However, the witch has followed them, and one day Jack stumbles upon her.

Once Jack has killed one giant and assumes his rightful place in his father's castle, word spreads and people from other villages come to him, hoping Jack can solve their giant problems as well.

Don't let the title of this book fool you--it's not meant to insult you. The title actually comes from one of the numerous biblical messages written and preached by the author, Rev. Roger Austin. Covering a wide range of topics, Pastor Austin deals with the types of experiences that many of us face in life--our striving to start and continue a relationship with Jesus, having a true understanding of the Christian faith, remaining committed in our walk with Christ, and how to do our best to treat other people the way we want to be treated. Since Pastor Austin has employed many stories from his own life in order to help illustrate the points he makes in his messages, readers will discover how various types of life experiences--heartbreaking, anger-inducing, and funny--contain elements that can help lead, guide, and direct us in our walk through life with Christ. While we all have our own thoughts, feelings, and opinions on the topic of religious faith, Wrong Again, Doglips will speak to both unbelievers and followers of the Christian faith.

We have all heard the expression that fact can be stranger than fiction. This collection of short stories may indeed prove this idea to be true. About half of these stories have been experienced by myself; the remaining stories have been retrieved from friends, relatives, family history records, medical colleagues, and military officers. How is it possible that I could have encountered such strange occurrences during my lifetime? I believe it is because I attended ten different schools before high school graduation; attended universities from East to West Coast, USA; was exposed to numerous different cultures; and developed friendships with a plethora of unique, interesting people.Read these stories, and some of your questions about life and its meaning may be answered, and ask yourself the question: Have I ever experienced any unusual stories that are as incredible as these? I bet the answer is yes.
