Six stories for children ages 2 – 5. 
The graphics are not yet set, but here is a flavor, with the titles.

 Farfel, the Fat, Fluffy Cat –

Dreamed of the nine different lives that he could supposedly have,
only to realize that he was content just being a fat, fluffy, lazy cat.
This book targets age 3-6.

PARTIAL EXCERPT:

Farfel was a fluffy cat
Who had a big fat tummy.
He loved to eat all the time.
All food looked so yummy.

He would sit up in a window
Fluffy black and white, he sat
Thinking of who he could be
If he was not just a cat.

It is said that cats have nine lives
What could his turn out to be?
In this life he is a fat, fluffy cat
Too fat to climb a tree…

The Weasel who Caught the Measles –

Shares the lesson of how important it is to get childhood vaccines.

Brady Boy –

A boxer puppy dog living with the Youngs, has a very content life of going on walks,
cuddling, peeing and pooping.

Bob, the Bumble Bee –

Buzzily flies all around town, appreciating the beautiful flowers, trees,
and leaves in his environment, ending each glorious day in his bee hive.

Dottie, the Lady Bug –

Loves sunny days when she flies and crawls, looking for food
that she happily and readily shares with lots of other bugs.

Norbert the Barnyard Goat –

Without asking permission, ate everything in the farmer’s garden
without realizing the consequences of his actions.

Kathy Young

KATHY YOUNG is a credentialed K-8 teacher, having taught academics, as well as vocal music and guitar. She also works for the U.S, Dept of Education for The National Assessment of Educational Progress, also known as The Nation’s Report Card.  Kathy had the privilege of working with children, pre and post-operative in the hospitals of Kabul, Afghanistan and Solo Indonesia. Her six picture books appeal to the 2 – 5 year age group, all of which teach an important lesson in a funny and cute way. Because of their very visual quality, I believe that they would all present well as picture books.  Kathy is a wonderful storyteller and loves to read her stories to children.

Kathy is currently working on a young adult novel taking place at a haunted chateau in France, based on a personal experience.  She is the co-author, along with her husband, Gary Young, of the non-fiction book, Loss And Found – Surviving The Loss Of A Young Partner, which is used as supplemental reading at colleges throughout the country, for which she has done extensive media publicity.
