Review: LIONS AND THE LIVING DEAD by Ruby Loren
(Madigan Amos Zoo Mysteries Book 4)

In this fourth entry in the wildly delightful cozy mystery series starring intrepid and dedicated animal welfare advocate/zookeeper Madigan (Madi) Amos, Madi is working at a zoo in Cornwall. The new owners purchased it from the former owner after his scandalous animal abuses were exposed, but the animals need care, attention, and a specialist like Madi to recover physically and mentally, and if they are ever to trust humans again. While Madi is concentrating on the zoo animals, the owner of the contracted PR firm is stalked, accidents occur, and eventually murder. Then some of the animals--and Madi--are put in danger. She is threatened with exposure, even though her actions here and previously, have been innocent of any wrongdoing; and she learns her boyfriend is definitely no one's open book.

Review of BUBBY 'S PUDDLE POND

It also reinforces the concepts of friendship, kindness, generosity, and teamwork. Through Bubby the tortoise and his interactions with new friends (cactus wren, rabbit, gecko, and his humans), children will learn about the habitat, needs, and care of desert tortoises. The author offers additional essential information on Arizona's Desert Tortoise Adoption program.
