Terry Lee Marzell will be making an author appearance at the Bark Around Ayala Park event to be held on Sat., Nov. 9, 2024, from 9:00 am to 12:00 am at Ayala Park, 5575 Edison Avenue, Chino, 91710. At the event, Terry will feature her book, Unleashed! The Dog Park Chronicles.

The novel shares the story of Bowser, based on the true-life experience of Kurby, the little terrier mix that Terry and her husband, Hal, adopted after he was rescued from an abusive former owner. Their fur baby is even depicted on the front cover of the book!

But that’s not all the book is about. The narrative features a charming cast of animal characters and their human companions who live in or visit the dog park. Each event which takes place holds an essential message about kindness, community, inclusion, and personal responsibility. There are also messages about anti-bullying and anti-prejudice.

In addition, the narrative includes commentary about how young people can appreciate nature, even if they live in a suburban environment. For example, Marzell explores themes related to the migratory patterns of Canada geese, the natural instincts of the animal characters, and the progression of the seasons.

Come to the Bark Around the Park event to meet Terry Lee Marzell and Kurby! Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. The book is also available in both paperback and ebook versions from amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. See you at the park!

Author Terry Lee Marzell made an author appearance at the Paws in the Park event held at Vila Borba dog park in Chino Hills on Sat., Sept. 7. There she introduced her new book, Unleashed! The Dog Park Chronicles, released just last month.

Vila Borba is the setting for the novel, which is an engaging story written for children, but is also entertaining for adults as well. The episodes teach important life lessons about kindness, resilience, and personal responsibility.

Terry was accompanied by her husband, Hal, and her pooch, Kurby, who actually appears in the book as a character. Kurby’s story is the basis for the the character named Bowser. In addition to the dogs who visit the park, the characters include two rabbits, a raccoon, and a squirrel whose antics will make the reader laugh out loud.

The Paws in the Park event featured a doggie fashion show, pooch races, and vendors. The heat was intense, but the event was a rousing success!

Terry Lee Marzell and her fur baby, Kurby, will be making an author appearance at the Paws in the Park event to be held on Sept. 7, 2024, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. The event will be held at Vila Borba Dog Park located at 17001 Amadora Dr, Chino Hills, CA 91709. At the event, Terry will feature her new book, Unleashed! The Dog Park Chronicles, a children’s book which features a setting at Vila Borba.

The novel shares the story of Bowser which is based on the true-life experience of Kurby, who was rescued from his abusive former owner. He’s even depicted on the front cover of the book! Another character in the novel is the elegant tuxedo cat, Licorice, another of Terry’s fur babies. She appears on the back cover.

But that’s not all the book is about! The narrative features a charming cast of animal characters and their human companions who live in or visit the dog park. Each event which takes place holds an essential message about kindness, community, inclusion, and personal responsibility. There are also messages about anti-bullying and anti-prejudice. In addition, the narrative includes commentary about how young people can appreciate nature, even if they live in a suburban environment. For example, there are chapters about the migratory patterns of Canada geese, the natural instincts of the animal characters, and the progression of the seasons.

I am excited to announce that my most recent book, Unleashed! The Dog Park Chronicles, is now available in both paperback and ebook versions from amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. This is my first novel for young children, ages 5—12.

In the book, I have created a charming cast of animal characters and their human companions who live in or visit the local dog park. Each event which takes place holds an essential message about kindness, community, inclusion, and personal responsibility. There are also messages of anti-bullying and anti-prejudice.

In addition, the narrative includes commentary about how young people can appreciate nature, even if they live in a suburban environment. I explore themes related to the migratory patterns of Canada geese, the natural instincts of the animal characters, and the progression of the seasons.

The dog park described in the novel, Vila Borba, really exists! It is located not far from my home in Chino Hills, California. And depicted on the cover of the book are two of my very own pets! The little white terrier mix on the front cover is Kurby, whose rescue story is described in Chapter 4. (In the book the Kurby character is named Bowser.) The elegant black and white tuxedo is my own ladycat, Licorice.

This 156-page book would make a terrific leisure reading book for your students, or it would make an entertaining story for your own children. After you’ve read it, feel free to post a review on amazon. I’d love to read your thoughts!
