I loved this one so much, I'm sure I'd love those as well. Bob, LOL, I'm sure it is nerve-wracking writing the books. After the writing you have all of the pain in the butt editing and publishing process. Great to hear that the animals are doing well! Hopefully Victor gets to reclaim his place as alpha duck soon :) I'm sure Roscoe will be happy and take on the leader role wherever he goes. I'll be sure to let you know when I finish Fowl Weather. I'll have a review up here whenever I read it! Joanne, Oh, you're going to love this one. That's awesome that you donate to your local shelter! They're lucky to have you. I totally understand not wanting to actually go to the shelter...you just want to take all of them home! JP, I really need to read some Durrel!

I'm a huge animal lover - Every month I make donations to our local shelter but I've begun mailing the cheques since I cannot go to the shelter without crying because I can't bring all the animals home. I'll be picking this book up ASAP - the Tarte family sound like amazing people and I can't wait to read their story. This looks terrific!

Actually, I'm always looking for an excuse to stop writing books, since it's nerve-wracking on several levels. But at the same time it seems to be at least mildly therapeutic. The animals are doing well, except that we just took in a Muscovy duck who, although really likable, is going after Victor, who had been alpha duck. And I don't like seeing Victor vanquished. So we'll need to find another home for 'Roscoe.' If you do get to "Fowl Weather," let me know how you like it. (There's lots about Victor, the parrots, and various rabbits in it.) Thanks to everyone who has read or is thinking of reading my books. Please check out my website - especially the videos. Three or so of them take a little while to load, maybe even up to two minutes, but I think you'll like them. (www.bobtarte.com) Chris, Thanks for the shout.

It is ridiculous. Oklahoma had the game won over and over again and then couldn't execute. Yes, she has a flop-eared bunny named Rosie. It is super soft and thumps very loud when it is unhappy. It is fun to watch their cat try to play with it. I never knew rabbits growled, but God help me the thing growls at that cat. Weird.
