From Sunny Fader, author of The Cat Who Loved Dogs:
“You will love this imaginatively conceived collection featuring a dog and a cat with definite attitude.  A charming, funny read guaranteed to put a smile on the face of anyone who has ever given their heart to a dog or cat.”

About the book: 
Lance & Ringo Tails is a collection of ten short stories (“tails”) about the wild adventures of a dog and a cat as told by their human. Lance and Ringo also share their perspectives, granting a glimpse into what these two really think of each other and their humans.

The humorous short stories are based on my real pets and their real life wild adventures. Each fictionalized story follows Lance, an English springer spaniel, and Ringo, a long-haired domestic cat, as they learn to live together as brothers with their humans.

Recommended for ages 10+, but animal lovers of all ages will enjoy the "tails."

Tails One through Nine are also available as individual short stories in the Kindle Store. Tail Ten is exclusively featured in this collection.
