A charming story for kids and dog-loving families.

Kristin's debut book captures the delightful humor and subtle magic of family life, one tail wag at a time. Kristin has spent over 20 years creating educational content for oncology communities, integrating clarity, compassion, and a knack for storytelling. Now, she's expanding her professional repertoire to include children's literature. When she's not writing or wrangling illustrations, Kristin is mom to three kids and a dog, all of whom provide endless inspiration (and occasional interruptions). She lives in sunny San Diego with her husband in a household full of heart, humor, and dog fur. www.kristinwrites.comGoldin Wunsch, Gail: - Gail Goldin Wunsch is a versatile artist whose talents span painting, sculpture, pottery, and jewelry/metal work.
