Love Wins


The fictional Rumplepimple’s family structure is just like the real Rumplepimple’s. He has two mommies and a sister cat. My wife and I believe strongly that providing books that show families of a variety of structures makes sense, because children live in all sorts of familial configurations. Some live with a mom and dad, some with just one of each, some with two of one or the other. Some live with grandparents, others with foster parents, and that’s just a few examples. Social belongingness and acceptance is important for kids. They want to feel “normal”. They want to read about families like their own. Rumplepimple shows that parents act like parents regardless of gender or biological relationship. And that love is what is important.

What is it about Foxies?


Anyone who’s ever been owned by a terrier knows that they are a creature unlike any other. Wire Fox Terrier minds are busily plotting the takeover of the world, or at least the successful destruction of the latest squeaker toy. You can detect their naughtiness through the glint of a half lidded eye and the angle of a turned head. They are smart, willful, obsessive, and stubborn. They are also funny, energetic, cuddly (on their own terms) and generally adorable. 

We terrier lovers wouldn’t have it any other way.

In writing Rumplepimple, I wanted to show that while the breed can be a handful, they have reasons for doing what they do, and they are worth it. I also wanted to give terrier families a little something to think about next time their pup, or their tot, gets into trouble. 

Maybe there was more to the story than they realize.
