Cat Chat with Caren & Cody Reviewed our Book

Welcome to 2014! We hope your year ahead is the best yet for you and your family. 


   
   We have had some exciting posts about our book over the last couple of weeks, but attempting to stay in holiday mode and limit our blogging time, we will now be paying catch up to share them with you. Yippee! 
   For today, we would like to share with you the fantastic book review that Caren, of Cat Chat with Caren & Cody, posted about our book, just before Christmas. She made our paws dance and dance. If you have a cat, we highly recommend checking out and following her blog. Even if you don't have a cat, her blog is fun to read.
Thank you, Caren & Cody for starting our holidays off with a bang!

Wordless Wednesday: Happy New Year and a Tearful Good-Bye

This is where we normally ask you to write something that the picture below inspires you to write. However, we lost our dear friend, and star of our Wordless Wednesday posts, this past weekend. 
Snuffles the hamster brought extreme joy to Neighbor Girl's life and to her family. A beautiful cream colored Chinese Dwarf Hamster, she loved her wheel and loved a pumpkin seed even more.  This little hamster was treated like royalty and was well loved.
At this time, Neighbor Girl has requested we combine the pictures that we had scheduled for our upcoming Wordless Wednesday Posts into one as a tribute to Snuffles and we will be taking a break from the Wordless Wednesday posts until further notice. 
Today's scheduled post: 
Scheduled to run Jan. 7th and titled, "Hanging out with a friend."
Scheduled to run Jan. 14th and titled, "Just Hanging Around." 
To view most of the prior Snuffles WW pics, our Facebook album is the best spot for that.
Snuffles may have been tiny but the comfort she brought Neighbor Girl was mighty. Snuffles, dear hamster, you will be missed by us all!
We have participated routinely in the following Wordless Wednesday Blog Hops.
We encourage you to visit them as well.
Thank you to all the fabulous hosts!

Lobo's Howliday $100 Book Blast

About the Book ~ *New Release* Title: Lobo's Howliday
(The Adventures of Lovable Lobo) 
Author: C.L. Murphy
Publication Date: Dec. 1, 2013
Publisher: Independent - Peanut Butter Prose Number of pages: 32
Recommended age: 3+      
Summary It's almost Christmas and Santa finds himself in quite the predicament due to unintended consequences as a result of trying something new. Lobo, and his raven sidekick, Roxy, travel to the North Pole to help the jolly ole' one and are guided by the Arctic animals. The colors of the season delight along the way and make for a howling good holiday. Can you howl Ho Ho Ho?   Book Trailer   The Early Buzz "The Adventures of Lovable Lobo: Lobo's Howliday is a children's book written by C.L. Murphy. Lobo and his friend Roxy, the raven, are surprised when an owl comes to see Lobo with a special delivery. Within the bag is Arty, an Arctic mouse who has an urgent request from Santa. Santa needs Lobo's help this year, and the three of them set off for the North Pole. Along the way, they meet an Arctic fox, who lets them stay the night in his den and a polar bear who transports them across icy water. An Arctic wolf accompanies them for the rest of the journey to Santa's Village, where an Arctic hare is waiting for them. Santa has updated his method of delivering gifts on Christmas, but he's got a problem that Lobo can help him with.I was spellbound reading The Adventures of Lovable Lobo: Lobo's Howliday. C.L. Murphy's artwork is simply amazing. Each page is filled with images you can get lost in: lush green forests, sparkling night skies, snowy expanses, and the animals have personality and incredible appeal. If you're lacking in Christmas spirit this year, no matter what your age, spending some time with Lobo, Roxy, and Arty will soon change your attitude. Lobo's Howliday is also a great way to introduce a child to the Northern Lights, the Arctic, and the amazing animals that live there (see if you can find the Orca!). I've already recommended The Adventures of Lovable Lobo: Lobo's Howliday to friends who have children or grandchildren. It's a very special book.

About the Author: C.L. Murphy
While new to the children's book writing and illustrating scene, C.L. has been doodling her way through life since she won a school wide poster contest in the third grade. She's had the pleasure of working as an artist in residence, creating cartoons and painting murals with the children at local elementary schools. She adores the wonder and curiosity of young children. For years, she filed picture book ideas away, until the reality of the empty nest syndrome sunk in and she decided to bring her favorite one to fruition. She based the character, Lovable Lobo , on something very dear to her heart, a real wolf that she's raised for the last 13 years. She's felt the need to protect him his entire life, primarily due to the preconceived notions that wolves are to be feared. She lives amongst the wildlife in an enchanted forest in the beautiful Oregon wilderness. She has always appreciated nature and animals have always played a major role in her life. She was that little girl who brought home the strays asking "Can we please keep it?" At an early age she realized her connection with animals by training a wild bluejay to appear on command to take food from her hand. Check out her book series and discover that you, too, will find Lobo lovable.

2 Cats, a Dog and 2 Guinea Pigs Sharing Their Secrets with a Giveaway, Part II

   This is Part II of our PetBookCharCon post. Yippee!
   Stanley and I recently attended PetBookCharCon*. It is a huge convention just for animal characters of books. It was impressive and fun. In one of our breakout sessions we were lucky enough to be grouped with Fred & George, (guinea pigs from The Princelings of the East Series), and Max (a cat from The Shadows of the Past Series). The leader of the breakout session gave us a handful of questions to answer to help us get to know each other better. We are thrilled that we have everyone’s permission to share this epic moment in PetBookCharCon history. Please note: due to the wordiness of the characters involved, this interview was broken into two parts, with the first portion posted on December 5th. Be sure to scroll down to the bottom to enter the giveaway! 

Thank you for reading and sharing,
Katrina von Cat the Master of Wisdom and Knowledge

(and Stanley)

=========================
*PetBookCharCon is a fictional convention. :)


   What has been your most embarrassing moment? 
Katrina: When Stanley and I tango danced.Stanley: When Katrina and I tango danced.Max: I’ve had more than a few embarrassing incidents, for example I didn’t like it when I had to be disguised as a baby during our trip to Atlantis – that was really undignified. But I think my most embarrassing moment happened when I first met the famous Boy-King Tutankhamun at his palace in ancient Egypt.   I ran off screaming when I saw him, because I thought he was a mummy. It wasn’t my fault though. His legs were wrapped in bandages, following an unfortunate encounter with a crocodile and, from where I was standing, that was all I could see. Easy mistake to make! Jemima was pretty cross with me for behaving like that in front of a Pharaoh.Katrina: A baby! That IS undignified.Fred: For me, it was when I was very small and I tried to do something no-one had done for years, and stupidly I told everyone I was going to do it. A huge crowd turned out to watch and I made a complete fool of myself. George said I shouldn’t worry as at least I’d tried, but I still felt a fool for building myself up as something special, which I wasn’t. The challenge was to run around the inner courtyard of the castle, but without touching the ground at any point, only using the battlements, window ledges, crevices, flagpoles and anything else to leap from point to point. I fell off on the third corner straight into a crowd of people including my Uncle Vlad. George: I think there used to be another flagpole there which is why no-one’s done it for centuries. We’re putting another one up in time for Yule this year and reinstating the challenge. It’s called ‘wall-running’ and lots of castles do it.Fred: What’s your embarrassing moment, George?George: Well, I get embarrassed quite easily, especially by people making me out to be more than I am. But I was very embarrassed when I didn’t realise for a while that Kira had been kidnapped when we were with her. I should have spotted that sooner.
Have you ever made a speech and if so, what was it about and how did it go? Max: I’ve never had to make a speech in public as I’m not supposed to talk in front of grown-ups. On the few occasions when I have broken the rule and spoken to a stranger, they’ve reacted very strangely and freaked out. Some people just find it too hard to accept that a cat can talk.Fred:  I have to make speeches all the time at Yuletide.George:  You have at least three days when you don’t.Fred:  Not if Kira gets her way with the Arts Festival.George:  True.Fred: The worst one is the Solstice speech. It’s supposed to be about the dark time of year, and the sun going to renew itself, just as our land will renew itself and all that, but of course now we know the earth goes round the sun and its just the eccentricity of the orbit and the tilt of the earth’s axis that makes the sun sink so low and the days get short.George:  He built a lovely machine called an orrery and put it so that everyone could see all the planets whirling round.Fred: Well, you built it for me, I just ordered it from that lovely Dr Zelli in the Rhinelands.George: It’s a really nice machine.Fred: Tell them about your speeches.George: Oh, I don’t do speeches. I sometimes have to tell people about my work, but that’s different.Fred: He’s very good at telling people about his work. Short and clear, then sits down again.George: Well, that’s all that’s needed, isn’t it?Katrina: I made a speech once, and the owner’s simply said, “Katrina, get off the table!”Stanley: I have never made a speech in my life.Katrina: So, it went well!
What's your favorite party game?  George: I like playing Pin the Tail on the Carriage Horse. You have a picture of a horse on a wall, and someone blindfolds you and gives you a bit of wool, representing the tail of the horse, and you go to the wall and pin it on. It’s very funny when you find you’ve pinned it on his nose, or ears, or nowhere near him!Katrina: Oooo my favorite party game is Eat Treats.Stanley: My favorite party game is Chase the Cat Eating Treats.Fred: Have you heard of ‘Charades’? I enjoy that game.George: You have to act out the name of a book or play. The others have to guess what it is.Fred: I’m good at guessing that.George:  It’s because you’ve read more books than anyone else.Fred:  You’ve read a lot of books too.George:  Yes, but no one is going to suggest “Particle theory and the strange lights of the North” as a party title.Fred: Hmmm. You’ve just given me an idea!Max: I’m not really into party games as they tend to be rather noisy. Jemima made me play Twister once and I ended up tied in all sorts of knots - it was most uncomfortable. But the twins used to have a board game which I found quite interesting. It was called Mousetrap, but I was always getting into trouble for running off with the little plastic mice.
