About the Author

Dr. Brett spent nearly 30 years caring for patients in emergency and urgent care medicine. Throughout those years, one lesson stood out again and again:

Courage isn’t about being the biggest or strongest—it’s about showing up when it matters.

Now retired from medicine, Dr. Brett turned to storytelling and created the Sir Dustin series to share that message with children and future grandchildren.

Inspired by a real small cavapoo named Dustin, these stories celebrate bravery, kindness, friendship, and discovering that even the smallest heroes can make the biggest difference.

When he isn’t creating stories, Dr. Brett enjoys imagining new adventures in the Kingdom of Goldenvale and creating activities that help children read, play, and explore.

Welcome to the world of Sir Dustin—where courage comes in all sizes.
