Where Love, Laughter, and Little Miracles Come Together
An uplifting children’s story inspired by a lucky rescue pup — spreading love, faith, and hope one wag at a time.
“A heartwarming story, told in the gifted voice of a Samoan woman, who rescues a dog that rescues her right back. An inspirational read for all ages.” Jennifer Martin, contributing author for Chicken Soup for the Soul series and author of The Huna Warrior: The Magic Begins

How It All Began
I never planned to write a book — I was knee-deep investigating an electrical fire that caused injuries at a senior community when God spoke to my heart.
He said, “It’s time to share your story.”
So I listened — and that’s how it all began.
Out of tears, laughter, faith, and one very special rescue pup, Jackpawt, the Lucky Pup was born.

About Tina Minasian
Tina Minasian writes with the heart of a survivor, the soul of an advocate, and the voice of a mother who’s walked through fire. She is the author of Jackpawt, The Lucky Pup, an inspiring children’s book born from a real-life miracle—her rescue pup Jackpawt, who ended up rescuing her right back.
Writing Jackpawt’s story was not only healing—it transformed her entire mindset and heart. What began as a labor of love grew into a deeper understanding of her life’s calling: advocacy. Tina has been an advocate since childhood—caring for her younger siblings during unstable times, supporting her parents, and eventually standing up for patients and loved ones when it mattered most. Those experiences gave her the strength to fight for her own son’s life during his battle with cancer.
Tina also brings a playful, creative spirit to her storytelling. She wrote and produced the original song “Four Black Paws,” which she performed using her own childlike voiceover—a nod to the innocence and imagination of childhood. Her ukulele and voice help bring her stories to life in a way that’s both heartfelt and uniquely hers.
Whether writing children's books, memoirs, or advocacy-driven non-fiction, Tina’s work is grounded in truth, resilience, and the belief that even broken paths can lead to beautiful destinations.

The Heart Of One Love Creation
One Love Creation – Tinā Talanoa (Samoan translation: mother’s storytelling or mother’s talk). As a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who believes faith in God, hope, laughter, and a little furry love can heal just about anything.
One Love Creation grew from a simple mission: to share stories that inspire kindness, love, hope, faith, Samoan and Polynesian culture — stories that remind us we are all part of one big family.
