Dog Talking: Do you often wonder what your dog is really thinking? Just ask Ethel Frances, who will quickly become one of your favorite authors.
With a bit of encouragement, she might even autograph your book. A dog-talker with attitude, Ethel Frances invites you into her colorful, fast-paced life. She loves “most” people, ice cream, and sticks of all sizes.

She dislikes cars, but wishes dogs could drive. Although she adores her dog sisters, Lulu and Izzy, Izzy’s constant need for attention makes her dizzy. Ethel Frances is especially proud of her volunteer work, education, and Canine Good Citizen certificate.

Life Lessons: But Ethel Frances is no pushover. She has strong feelings and opinions: on puppy adoption, puppy names, puppy school, bullying, sibling rivalry, dog walking, people who dislike dogs, mean dogs, sharing and caring, and more. Ethel Frances can also be naughty, driving mommy Marcia to the brink, but it’s all part of the great joy of a dog’s life. This children’s dog book is a must-have for kids, their parents, and pet lovers everywhere. Ethel Frances brings love to all who meet her in person or through her book.

Ethel Frances began writing two years ago. Her inspiration comes from real life experiences: life at home; encounters while taking walks; and from her volunteer work. She does most of her writing when her house is quiet, early in the morning or late at night. Mommy Marcia helps her by doing all of the typing. On most Sundays, you can find Ethel Frances and mom Marcia volunteering in a pet therapy program in Rockville, Maryland.

Tales From a Tail Wagging Dog is a must-have for children of all ages, their parents and dog lovers everywhere.
