Phooey Tales

Phooey Kerflooey is a twenty-two-pound Newfoundland puppy who is afraid of shiny floors, metal dog dishes, and green peppers. Phooey is purchased by a houseful of boys who adore paintball, wheelchair jumps, and battling attacking squirrels. Her new family thinks she is a Scottish terrier (22lbs grown up) when she is actually a big, beautiful Newfoundland who will grow to be over 100lbs! Phooey Tales: Spring is a series of chapter books (for ages 6-10) from Phooey’s point of view that occur in March, April, or May when she is between the ages of two and four months and between twenty-two to forty-seven pounds. Book #1 and book #2 parallels the action from the middle grade novel (for ages 9-12) Phooey Kerflooey. The series follows her squirrel-chasing adventures in the small town of Sleepy Valley and then transitions to Camp Castle Pine where Phooey’s family begins their forest adventures at an off-grid Bible camp. Not only has the author been owned by three different Newfoundland dogs (Shamu—163lbs, Princess Leia Freyja—114lbs, Nessie Grace Karu—133lbs) but Kristen and her all-boy family live at an off-grid Bible camp on a hidden meadow tucked into the foothills of the Cascade Mountains.
