This is a story about twin sisters. It is about their love for each other and their strong bond. It is also about how they are the same but very different. It is a true story. I hope this audiobook brings to life what I enjoy every day. These two little fluff balls are the love of my life. I cannot imagine my world without Sugar and Cookie in it. I knew right away that they were very special dogs. People would surround us in the park to take pictures. They are little celebrities already.
