(Or: Not-So-Wordless Wednesday, as the case may be…)
We have our very own YouTube channel now! So all you fans can look forward to some more live-action entertainment in the future :) In the meantime, we hope you enjoy our very first movie!
The Adventures of Baseball and Zooey Presents: Zooey on Catnip
Happy Monday everyone! Did you have a good weekend?
We got some new feathery mice to play with on Friday, and we haven’t stopped playing with them since! Although they’re already missing a couple of feathers…and now we have to share, because Zooey lost hers under the couch! At least Mom thinks that’s where it went, but she can’t find it anywhere. Looks like she’ll have to stock up next time she’s at the store – and that was really our plan all along, then we’ll have a whole pile of mice! ;)
Anyways, we’ll turn the keyboard over to Mom now, because she said she has something exciting to share with you guys…
Those zany cats…
But they’re right! I do have something pretty exciting to share with you – while Baseball and Zooey were hard at work destroying feathered mice this weekend, I got down to business, working on our third book!
We still have a ways to go before it’s ready for publication, but the cover art is finally finished. Since everyone enjoys a sneak peek behind the scenes, we decided to share it with you!
What do you think? Any guesses as to what the surprise under the house might be?? Find out this November!
Yesterday, Zooey The AcroCat received its very first review from Nicole over at Ariesgrl Book Reviews!
As you can imagine, Baseball, Zooey, and I were pretty excited to see what she thought – especially Zooey!
Check out an excerpt of her review below, or visit the official Ariesgrl Book Reviews’ site here to read the whole thing.
“”[Zooey The AcroCat is] A unique children’s book, with hand-drawn pictures that will be relatable to young children and give the story a more personal feel. Though this story does not rhyme, the sentences are short and easy to read, which is perfect for helping children transition from being read-to, to reading the book themselves. Kelly tells the story of her two mischievous cats, which is relatable to every pet owner. A bit of an abrupt ending will leave readers guessing what Baseball and Zooey do next…I would recommend this book to parents with young children as a cute, short bedtime story.”
We’re glad you liked our cliffhanger ending, Nicole! What WILL Zooey The AcroCat and her sidekick Baseball do next?? Be sure to find out when our third book, The Surprise Under The House, makes its debut this November!

Hello lovely readers! Zooey and I are SO excited today, because today is the launch of our brand new website!!!
What’s exciting about this new website, you ask?
Well, it’s dedicated entirely to our book Zooey and Her Soldier!
You see, Zooey and I have been thinking recently, and we’ve decided that because Zooey and Her Soldier is the only book about military life in “The Adventures of Baseball and Zooey” series, it really should have its very own website. Now you can find out about all the latest on Zooey, without having to read about that pesky Baseball! (Okay, so Zooey wrote that last bit).
Not only that, but its also going to be a great resource for military families, with links to some of our favorite military family blogs, and ways you can help support our troops!
So, stop by the site if you’d like, take a look around – and thank you for celebrating the launch with us!
Whew! Another warm weekend for us over here. How have you all been??
Well, today I just wanted to take a moment to update you on some of the things that are going on around here. First of all, check out our new banner! Baseball and Zooey informed me that our last one was a bit boring – so we decided to spruce it up a bit :) We did the same to our facebook banner as well – check it out!
Also, now that you can pre-order your copy of Zooey The AcroCat, we updated the shop page, and we added Zooey The AcroCat to the shop’s drop down menu!
So feel free to explore the changes to the site a little bit – and don’t forget to get your copy of our latest book, today!
Oh, and I almost forgot! Our Zooey and Her Soldier giveaway is still up and running on Goodreads for ten more days, so if you haven’t entered yet, be sure to do so below, and you could be one of four lucky winners!
Giveaway ends August 24, 2012.

In the meantime though, we want to send out a huge thank you to all of our readers, supporters, and everyone who has helped us and inspired us during the writing process. Once upon a time I was a girl with a dream and a couple of cats, and now I’m the published author of two children’s books!
