Books in the Barnyard: Oh Deer!
based on a True Story
Stella Bella, her children, and her puppy rescue an injured baby fawn after its mother has been killed and introduce her to their barnyard of adopted animals. The dear deer has a surprising superpower that empowers and inspires everyone to realize theirs. Books in the Barnyard: Oh Deer! features many of the beloved creatures from the two previous books while introducing the book-loving, bottle-fed, doe-eyed fawn, Bambina. The creatures and children mutually benefit from stories as they mingle mindfully in nature. Turn the pages, find the funny bunny, and read on for another unexpected adventure on the farm. With colorful watercolor illustrations by Marta Maszkiewicz that bring the prose to life, Books in the Barnyard: Oh Deer! is based on true-life quests and adventures with various species of animals as they discover how to live together in harmony in a diverse barnyard. Read, lead, succeed!

Family Forever
based on a True Story
Family Forever is the true story of how a tiny, unidentifiable creature became part of the adopted family in Stella Bella’s barnyard. Neither Stella Bella nor any of the animals know what this squeaking baby is until a chihuahua identifies it as a squirrel and becomes his guide and best friend. The goats teach the squirrel to climb, the pigs offer piggyback rides, and the bunnies bounce with him. He feels safe and warm in Stella Bella’s pocket until one day he meets another squirrel and leaves his adopted home with her to start a biological family. The animals remind him that a chosen family is forever. He will always be loved and welcomed home.
