About the Authors

This story, A Struggle For Survival, belongs to Jack Gibson, my grandson. Jack is now in the sixth grade at Bear Creek Internediate School in Keller, Texas. Two years ago, he asked me to help him write a novel and I asked him if he had a story. This is Jack’s story, including the title. He agreed to write his story in his own words and I would turn that story into a novel. We agreed to publish both of our writings in a joint venture.


Jack Dold is the author of more than fifteen books, most of them published by Author House and most of them novels. A Struggle For Survival is a story told to him by his grandson, Jack Gibson, which “Poppy” Jack promised to turn into a novel. The story is far too good not to be told.
