Hello! Welcome to our website. This is my dog Oreo. I used to read to Oreo when she was a puppy. When she got older, she said we should write a book; so we did.
"Doozy" is our first book. "Oh, Where'd You Go Oreo?" came next and that's a book all about Oreo and me. Then there was "A Dog I Know Called Oreo". This one's about our special friendship as the two of us both grow older.
Next was "What Would Oreo Say, If She Could Talk Today?" It's a book that celebrates friendship and the bond that strengthens over time. And our latest is "I Hope It Snows For Oreo", a holiday story conveying a sweet message of love and hope.
Oreo’s favorite hobbies are eating and sleeping. I think when she is sleeping, she dreams about chasing squirrels and eating. My favorite hobby is writing. When I’m asleep, I’m dreaming about new stories.
We make a good team, Oreo and I, and we’d like to thank you for looking at our website. I love coming to schools or events to talk about either of our books, so please let me know if you would like for me to come visit.
"Spiritual Roots" are brief contemplations reflecting John's faith and how it impacts the way in which he views the world. Family, his beloved dog Oreo, and nature are key themes within his work and hopefully moments in which he is able to connect with the reader.
"I Hope It Snows For Oreo" is a Christmas story told from the perspective of a little dog named Oreo. The story has beautiful images and conveys a sweet message of love and hope as the family prepares for the Christmas holiday, hoping it will snow.
I'm excited to announce that selected poems from "Slowly, I Grow" are being featured as part of Meter - a podcast experience from Daydreaming Network! These poetry selections are professionally narrated and enhanced with peaceful and soothing nature sounds to momentarily transport your mind. I'm so excited for this new way for you to experience these words.
