Please click here to read the first episode of Pudgy the fish, introduced in the Prologue to Contemplation: Intimacy In A Distant World.

Pudgy is a lovable Bahamian fish that lives in the waters of the Islands with his family and friends and experiences all of life's lessons, pleasant and unpleasant, from an insightful and compassionate spiritual point of view.

Through Pudgy's day-to-day episodes and interactions with his friends, both animal and human, the reader or viewer (for later multimedia versions) of these children's stories will find themselves in the midst of a story that will naturally generate a warm discussion and teaching experience between Parent and Child. Many of the stories will have their origin in or be suggested by the content appearing in noted Christian Psychotherapist and Bahamian, Dr. David F. Allen's landmark trilogy of books that discusses the healing of our wounded hearts through spirituality.  The trilogy is comprised of three books that have already been published:  In Search Of The Heart (1993), Shattering The Gods Within (1997) and Contemplation: Intimacy In A Distant World (2004). The first episode that introduces Pudgy can be found in the Prologue to Contemplation: Intimacy In A Distant World.

All the settings of the Pudgy stories will take place in the Bahamas and surrounding waters.  Most, if not all, of the music will be Bahamian or Caribbean.  

Pudgy as he exists today was created and copyrighted by Dr. David F. Allen, renowned Christian Psychotherapist from Nassau, Bahamas and Douglas F. Coppi, CEO of Curtain Call Productions in Washington, D.C.

Frank Minaya and Curtain Call Productions, are in the process of casting an appropriate individual for the voice-over of "Pudgy" the fish in the soon-to-be produced Bahamian cartoon series based on the the literary character.
