How many times have you heard a story about animal antics that you have said in your mind, “That’s a story someone should write about.”
Bits and pieces of stories put into words and melded with colourful illustrations bring these animal characters alive. That about sums up the children’s books that I write.
April 2 is Children’s International Book Day and there is no better time for me to tell you about the books for children I have published. The ones I am currently writing, and introduce the next one that will be launched later this year. Of course, I will also tell you about what the future has in store.

The Barn Cat Buttons Series didn’t start as a series. But...
 | After writing the first book, Barn Cat Buttons Meets Princess Kylie, it became clear that this cat with an attitude, along with his spirit friend, had lots of tales they could share about life around the ranch. |  |
The series features the sometimes cocky, crusty, loveable, barn cat and his acquaintances. Each of the characters in the books is based on real stories. The cast is introduced on a page dedicated to them at the end of the story.
Future storylines in the series will include a mule, some feathered friends, and a Hereford calf, to name a few.

 | Are you wondering what kind of shenanigans a barn cat and a calf will find themselves in the middle of? You’ll be able to see for yourself when Norman is launched later this year. |  |

| MUS, A Mouse Adventure is a stand-alone story inspired by an actual drive with a mouse. It has not yet been decided who was shocked more to be looking through the windshield at each other, the person behind the wheel, or the mouse. |  | The easiest pronunciation of the little mouse’s name is mus; however, it is pronounced moos. Will MUS have other adventure stories to tell? One never knows when it comes to small scurrying rodents. |
Right, wrong, and common sense is some of the subtle undertones included in the story books we write for children.
The books are printed using white writing on a black background combined with vibrant character and scenery colours to bring the story to life. This is a process that can be helpful to those with a visual impairment to be able to read them.
Going forward, there are plans in place to incorporate some of the characters from the Barn Cat Buttons Series into teaching books for young children. A mixture of counting, colours and activities are already in the beginning stages for these books.
