Testimonials

A DOG STEALS HOME

"Pitched right to the heart, A Dog Steals Home is a winner that touches all bases. Read it and cheer!" —M. H. Herlong, author of the award-winning Buddy and The Great Wide Sea

"Zach is a charming boy who will win hearts. A base hit." —Kirkus Reviews

"It's (A Dog Steals Home) a tail-wagging coming-of-age story with the flavor of New Orleans."—Sheila Stroup, The Times Picayune

"It's (A Dog Steals Home) a fine middle grade novel...such a charmer, the sweetest, fun little book." — Susan Larson, The Reading Life

“A Dog Steals Home beautifully weaves together the reality of older animals at shelters with that of a young person’s struggle with family changes; and in bringing the two together they both overcome the challenges they face. As the mom of a 6th grader (and a newborn) and an animal welfare professional, this story which celebrates the spirit of volunteerism and the joys and pains of childhood deeply resounded with me.” —Ana Zorrilla, CAWA, CEO Louisiana SPCA

THE CASE OF THE LEFT HAND TROMBONE

"My students will soon be asking for more Wyatt and Walter pig stories. This book will capture their hearts. I will need multiple copies in the school library!" —Kathy Cannata, elementary school librarian at Audubon Charter School, New Orleans

“In The Case of the Left-Handed Trombone young readers will meet eleven year-old Walter, a kid detective who roams the New Orleans French Quarter with his pot-bellied pig. Together they try to solve the disappearance of missing instruments by some of the cities famous jazz musicians. Children of all ages will love learning more about this historical city and, as a bonus, they’ll get tips on how to raise a pet pig! Great read!”
