Tykie’s Book
Complete with prison escapes, Halloween shenanigans, family reunions, a race of magical birds, and other exciting adventures, our story follows the heartwarming exploits of a cat named Pierre, who aims to give voice to kitties everywhere through his newly created “Kitty Nation.” Go on an emotional journey that’s sprinkled with humor, affection, risk, and rescue. Fall in love with a group of highly entertaining kitties who know the meaning of camaraderie and teamwork. Enjoy their budding relationship with the “Tweeties,” who aid the kitties and eventually depend on those same kitties for their own survival. Animal fiction never felt so believable as it does in Pierre and the Rise of The Kitty Nation, as magical realism takes hold. Narrated by the quirky and troubled “Tykie,” a kitty who uses his wit and dry humor to maintain his sanity, this family-friendly book is not just for cat lovers, but for anyone with an affinity for animal adventure.
Some people say animals don’t have a soul, but those people don’t know my brother, Pierre. He got himself imprisoned on purpose, received a vision, wrote a Manifesto, and then set out to create a whole new nation. Does that sound like an animal without a soul?
And consider me, his youngest brother, anti-social to a fault, and Pierre’s so-called “go-to kitty,” a badge that I wear with a modicum of pride; plus my intellectual prowess, which you’ll discover when you read my articles in The Kitty Underground. No soul? Really?
Not only do we have heart and soul, but I’m thinking that perhaps my brother’s vision isn’t crazy after all. I’ve wished he could be more normal in his communication, and not turn every event into an occasion for a poem. That is, until I myself wrote a poem … hmm.
I’m loath to promote my own work, but even I believe that my novel, Pierre and the Rise of The Kitty Nation, is as real as animal fiction gets. And that’s because it’s not fiction to us, it’s our lives, and it’s teamwork and camaraderie on an epic scale. This is a tale of vision, heart, danger, and risk.
An emotional rollercoaster awaits you.
