“Just sit and wait until you hear ‘heel.’ Then you can go.” Kukka smiled. “People teach us that.”
“Cats don’t do heel. That’s a dog thing.” Marlon stretched. “Cats do what they want when they want. And what I want is to cross to the other side.”
“That’s why the chicken crossed!” said Kukka, wagging her tail.
“What? Why?” Marlon asked.
“To get to the other side,” Kukka laughed. “It’s the old chicken joke, Marlon. Get it?”
Marlon groaned. “Yeah. It was pretty fowl.”
All jokes aside, you can read what happens next in my cozy cat adventure, “Marlon and the Wide World,” coming May 15.

We just got a new ★★★★ review on the Crowvus Book Blog
Excerpts: “It is a charming book, and one which deals with issues of anxiety and fear in childhood… Marlon is a charming little guy, and his newfound fear (or friend?!) is written brilliantly too. I’m looking forward to taking this book into school – I can already think of one or two pupils who will really enjoy and benefit from this book.
This is a personal book for the author, who explains in the afterword that he experienced anxiety as a child. This really shows – I would highly recommend this book to anyone who would like to discuss fear and anxiety with their child.”
Thank you Crowvus Book Blog for reviewing Marlon and the Scary Something
