I have always been an animal lover & pretty much love all animals, so I’m not sure I can pick one. Like most people I too love cats, for many years I had four Persians. I have been very fond of owls, ducks & frogs since I was a little girl. So excited about the new books, I loved the first two. The artwork is just so happy.

Congrats on these books Joyce! They look adorable!
My favorite furry animal is a bunny.. but my favorite bird is a jabiru. They are ridiculous looking and huge and still live in trees. : )
