June Author Update
Oakwoods is well underway for a 2025 release of all five brand new early reader chapter books. Featuring Boon, a wise turkey vulture in every book, each title will have another under-appreciated woodland animal’s exploits and growth. If you have ANY input on these topics, please let me know.
Pip O’Possum ( A story about work then play. It is like the story of the ant and the grasshopper, with a slice of Pinocchio.) This story has been written and will be professionally edited, then proofread this month. The illustrations and the cover should be finished by July as well.
Sally Skunkskin (A story about grumbling vs. contentment and thankfulness.) I’m writing this story now.
Benjamin Bat (A story about respect)
Nuts! (A story about generosity and forgiveness) It features 3 gray squirrels: Hazel, Hickory, and Henry.
Chester Crow (A story about dependability and self-control)
Finding Strength: During the Panic of 1893 is an audiobook! Ceci Garcia finished the final work and we’re just waiting on the distribution to about thirty different channels. Here’s the Amazon (Audible) link. Listen to the sample! Available on Spotify also.
