We’re excited that we’ve begun writing the next kids’ dog book in the Bash and Lucy series!
Dogs take center stage in this book. We can’t give away too many details, but we can provide a few hints.
First of all, the main dog-loving characters are Bash (of course), his Ukrainian grandma, Vera–who also is the assistant mayor–and Bash’s sister, Ally, the mayor, librarian and dance-troupe leader.
Now, you might imagine that with these two powerful women in his family, Bash might be able to influence them about the importance of caring for dogs, his favorite animal.
As it turns out, Ally and Vera don’t need any nudging at all.
They do some fun things to ensure that everyone in Bash’s little town remembers the important roles tail-waggers play in people’s lives.
Michael, now 11 years old, came up with some fun ideas for this Bash and Lucy book, which is our fourth.
He created a new role for Vera, and she takes center stage in the book, along with his sister, Ally, his dog, Lucy and other canine cuties.
This next book will likely be a chapter book and we’ll be sure to create an audiobook, with our voices and the voices of our friends and family members.
Let us know if you have any questions!
In the meantime, we’re planning our Skype in the Classroom visits for the fall. We meet via Skype with kids of all ages to talk about writing and publishing children’s books. You can sign up via Skype in the Classroom here.
We also want you to take a listen to our latest audiobook. You can listen to it for free! It features the voices of Lisa (narrator), Michael, Vera, Ally, our dog, Hudson, and many friends!

And, be sure to watch our book trailer, which is a video that features 5-year-old Michael and puppy Hudson! Michael’s sister, Ally, makes a short appearance in the video, which was created by an award-winning teen videographer:
