Garden City, NY Author Publishes New Children's Book

Joey, a new book by Frances E. Castellano, has been released by RoseDog Books.

We live in an exciting, high-speed, technological age, so sometimes we need to pause, reflect, or simply read a story. Joey is a simple story, and should not be easily dismissed. It is a children's story, but there are no age barriers.

Joey and his young master have a unique relationship, known only to the both of them. They share a secret, and as with all secrets, it can sometimes be burdensome. This does not stop them from enjoying happy outdoor activities in a small town, where life is easygoing and relaxed. Raking leaves, snowball fights, and just plain daydreaming are what most children have enjoyed doing since time began. But young Joey's master is presented with right or wrong choices, all the while learning what do to make things right.

When adults read Joey, it may bring to mind bittersweet memories of a carefree childhood or perhaps serious challenges they've faced in their lifetime. Frances E. Castellano feels that we can all learn from reading Joey and pause and reflect. One thing is certain-by the time you have finished the story, Joey will leave paw prints on your heart.
