I wrote and illustrated the Douglas the Rabbit Adventure Series, for kids of all ages, in memory of my dad. The first book, The Original Douglas the Rabbit Story, takes place in the summer and introduces Douglas and his adventurous spirit. The second book, Douglas the Rabbit Makes Some Friends, goes back to the previous spring to describe how Douglas got to know a bird, a skunk, a chipmunk, and a skunk in his effort to be helpful. The third book, Douglas the Rabbit's Fall Field Trip, takes Douglas and Sammy the Skunk on another outing to Farmer Brown's farm, where they enjoy more treats and narrowly escape raspberry pickers and Buster the Dog. In the last book, Douglas the Rabbit's Winter Holiday Surprise, Douglas invites his friends to a special winter gathering to celebrate the friendship they share. Each story highlights nature's beauty and seasonal change, and concludes with fun facts to answer questions that may arise. Douglas the Rabbit is a character that my dad created for me when I was a girl. The first story stays true to the curiosity, anticipation, and humor he stirred in me way back then. The three sequels reflect my own everyday adventures with my kids and pets. Enjoy!
