I'm thrilled my new new "baby" is about to arrive in the world! Even though it has over 50 siblings (my other published books), this one is extra special. From the first inkling of the idea to holding the completed book in my hands took eleven years! It was worth waiting for. Illustrator Janet Samuel used our beloved dog, Ellie, as a model for the main character's dog. The publishing team came up with the idea when Ellie died during the creation of the book. I will never forget their kindness. I'll be writing more about the creation of this book, but for now, I simply want to share my joy and invite you to spread the news by pre-ordering the book. MY AUTHOR COPIES! WHAT A THRILL! Great reviews from Publishers Weekly and School Library Journal While I was out, Greg put copies of my book all over the house! Our sweet Ellie, captured in Janet's beautiful illustrations...
