Marti will be at the Somersworth International Children's Festival on Saturday, June 15. Stop by and get a signed copy of one of her books and enjoy everything the festival has to offer. See you there!

We are so excited to announce that our second book, Francis the One-Eyed Wonder Kitty, is now available wherever books are sold.

This enchanting tale of resilience, bravery, and the power of love in "Francis the One-Eyed Wonder Kitty." Meet Francis, a black cat with one golden eye, who navigates the challenges of transitioning from a wild kitten to an indoor pet under the care of The Lady. While he finds comfort in the companionship of Old Kenny and the Big Black Dog, Francis longs to reconnect with his cousins. However, their rejection only fuels Francis's determination when he witnesses a kitten in need. With unwavering courage, he sets out to unite his cousins and save the day. Join Francis as he embarks on daring mission that reminds us all of the importance of acceptance and friendship.

We're working on getting MARC records uploaded so that libraries can more easily add Francis to their collections, and we're eagerly anticipating the audiobook on your favorite streaming platforms. We'll let you know when those are available!

April is National Poetry Month here in the US, and my son surprised me today with a diamante poem about Francis the One-Eyed Wonder Kitty, the titular character from our new book available May 6.

Francis
Playful, sad
Hiding, pushing, saving
Friends, Caring, Loving, Feeding, Caring
Smiling, Loving, Responsible
Nice, Friendly
Lady
