Pet Whisperer…er…rrr – New series with Ben Hopkin. Animals talk back!
If you loved the silly antics of the pups in Pups in Tea Cups, then you'll laugh out loud reading Pet Whisperer…er…rrrrr.
Wyatt and animals… don’t always see eye to eye. But that doesn’t mean he can’t make a rip-snorting pet psychic, right? I mean, seriously. What could possibly go wrong? Other than an elephant with a wandering trunk and a ferret that likes to dance around inside his pants, that is.
Oh, and the serial-killer Chihuahua.
Okay, so maybe a lot could go wrong.
Pet Whisperer…er…rrr: A book where the animals talk back!
Praise for The Pet Whisperer…er…rrr…
"This is such a cute book. I love how Ms. McCray had me laughing out loud and at the same time, was able to touch my heart with a softer side. When I first met Wyatt, I connected with his sense of humor. I love the beginning scene where he and his uncle Bhodhi are talking about 'chicks'. Too funny. The animals and their personalities make this book special, but the development of the main character and his relationship with family and friends touched my heart.

Amazon Reviewer
The Pet Whisper…er…rrr is a quick read that elicits a full spectrum of emotions. I laughed out loud on the very first page… Ms. McCray has a way of pulling you into her books and not letting go until the final word. I recommend this five-star story to anyone that enjoys humor with heart. If you love animals, you need this book."
Charlotte Abel
Author, Enchantment
"The story is sweet, silly and sad by turns. I also found it thoroughly engaging and look forward to more from these authors."

Pups in Teacups - Tales of "Littleness" overcoming BIG odds
Dr. Carolyn McCray has treated thousands of small dogs over the years and seen some big heroic acts from tiny dogs. And lots and lots of silliness. After years of simply telling her stories to friends and colleagues she was finally convinced to put these tender and playful stories into a collection.
Hence Pups in Tea Cups: Tales of "Littleness" overcoming BIG odds was born.
Praise for Pups in Tea Cups…
"This wonderful book had me roaring in laughter, crying (at moments) and remembering all of the tiny babies our family has owned over the years. If you enjoy dog stories, or if you own one of these tiny miracles, you will enjoy this one."
Roberta Karchner
"Pups in Tea Cups" is another laugh-out-loud-keep-the-tissue-box-handy book from best-seller Carolyn McCray. After reading her other "animal" book, "Pet Whisper…er…rrr" I couldn't wait to read this one. I occasionally dog-sit for three adorable maltese pups, also known as "the girls." Not only was I highly entertained by this collection of essays, I learned a lot about the condition of "Littleness." I'll be an even better doggie-nannie next time.
If you love tiny breeds or know someone that does you have to get this book! (And if you're considering adopting a tea cup pup, this book should be mandatory!)"
Charlotte Abel
Author, Enchantment
"As a veterinarian, I could completely relate to all of Carolyn's stories. The joy and sometimes heart-wrenching moments. She had me laughing and crying at the same time. I couldn't recommend this book more to anyone who loves dogs, not just the Tea Cup variety!"

7 Folds of Winter – Carolyn’s #1 bestselling YA Epic Fantasy
And, lastly, if you are a high fantasy fan, be on the lookout for 7 Folds of Winter, a warm fantasy for a cold winter’s night.
Told in the fashion of the fantasy masters Robert Jordan and George R.R. Martin, 7 Folds of Winter has been described as “a fresh breeze into the high fantasy annals” and “a beautiful balance between action and sweetness, the clash of steel and the tenderness of the heart.”
Praise for 7 Folds of Winter…
“I normally don't read fantasy books, but when I read 7 Folds of Winter, I couldn't help but get attached to the characters and their struggles. The author did an amazing job of expressing each individual character’s voice and role in the story. I know teens that have a taste for action, adventure, and romance all in one will love to read this book, and I hope to read more by Carolyn McCray.”

Teen Reviewer
“7 Folds of Winter is a Young Adult Fantasy novel, and if you are looking for fantasy and an out-of-this world story to read, this is it… From the inventive names of the characters down to the imaginative plot, Ms. McCray’s creativity goes above and beyond the norm for a young adult fantasy…
This is a great story that will pull you in and twirl you…”
Stacy Eaton, Author
My Blood Runs Blue
5 OUT OF 5 STARS! “7 Folds of Winter is a unique mix of characters thrown in together by the Fates to travel across this amazing white icy world to save it and each other, but will it be enough?
Each character is perfect in their creation. Together they face the world. Alone they face self-doubt and some face adolescent changes. I love all the characters for being their own unique person. 7 Folds of Winter is a roller coaster in a snowstorm. Exciting! Chilling! Exhilarating!”
The Pirate’s Bounty
Reviewer Extraordinaire
"A delightful fantasy filled with Old Gods, family bonds, and the magic that comes with both. Traven and Crystalia will grab you and draw you into their quest, until the last page leaves you wondering!"

Ben Hopkin
Ben Hopkin is a transplanted Texan. After being indoctrinated in the Lone Star State he was ripped from his ancestral home and whisked away to Los Angeles, where he was forced to appreciate fish tacos and sushi. While there, he worked as a professional actor, director, and producer, as well as teacher, which he loves most. He has now settled in Provo, Utah, with his wife and three children. Just in case there was any question, Provo is NOT a happy medium between Ft. Worth and LA, although his kids have made the transition from body boards to snowboards seamlessly.
