Share my happiness … and mark your calendar

Earlier this week Dr. Becker and I got the page proofs for the second of the three books we have coming out this fall. “MeowWow: Curiously Compelling Facts, True Tales and Trivia Even Your Cat Won’t Know” is the first book I’ve ever worked on with illustrations “just for fun” — as opposed to showing some aspect of pet care. The proofs were the first time I’d seen the illustrations — or indeed any of Molly Pierce’s work — and they are so delightful they put a smile on my face that lasted for a long, long time.
Here’s one of them, an image that goes with a segment about Shakespeare and cats:
Pretty cute, huh?
You can pre-order the books now, by the way.
Just ordered your Meow-Wow book and two of Marty Becker DVM books. I read parts of the Dummy book you wrote when I was at the Barnes and Noble Store and know you have great talent to write—easy to get message immediately and gives substantial info to reader.
Looking forward to reading Meow-Wow in November!

Wow! Thanks!
I’m so excited about these upcoming books. I’ve never done anything so gosh-darn cute.
Betcha didn’t know I had it in me!
