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!
