Getting A Good Night Sleep

In this humorous bedtime story, published by Good Puppy, Marina Tito and Lorenzo Di Alessandro take Betty out of the box and onto the spotlight. Sharp graphics in a carefully selected color pallet make Betty Bad Kitty’s Bedtime Story, Blame It On The Fly, a little jewel of design and an utterly delightful threat to get children to bed.

Meet Betty Bad, a commonly mischievous house cat. Betty is ready to get some attention, create a little mayhem and eventually, ruin everyone’s peaceful sleep. Betty waits all day to play at night, once all children are in bed, with a mouse or with a thread. But kitty falls into a Halloween costume box and all hell breaks loose in the neighborhood. Unaware of her new disguise, Betty climbs up to the roof. A neighbor calls the police, the firemen show up first to put everyone at ease.

The creature is finally captured and returned home. Where, ironically, we find ourselves at the beginning of the book, suggesting that kitty chaos will break loose again as night comes, hence the warning… “All children should be in bed or Betty Bad will ruin your night and your entire day ahead!

In this whimsical new children’s book, Chloe’s Little Secret, published by Good Puppy, Marina Tito and Lorenzo Di Alessandro summon a willful little girl, Chloe, to storm over any fear of the unknown with complete control over its vital source, imagination.

In a game of self-discovery, Chloe shines a light on her most priced possession, the friendship she built with the monster in her closet. In a tribute to an integrated personality, Chloe tells all about Floyd, her monster friend, with love and compassion, pointing the way to a positive outlook and understanding as the happy road to self-knowledge.

Chloe is not afraid. She calls the monster out and gives him a name. She gets to know her monster and cares for him well. Pulling from the dark corners of the imagination nothing but allies, flower eating monsters that can dance really well and would even catch you if you fell, well, it isn’t easy, you need to know them first, check their spelling, brush their teeth, Chloe shows us how anyone can do it if they put their heart into it.

Rising above fears, anxieties and insecurities, Chloe’s Little Secret is a reminder of how perspective defines our personal universe and by adjusting our own lens, we can turn a monster into our best friend.

Dougie & Kiwi - Daily Adventures is a humorous new children’s book about sharing, tolerance and understanding. In this endearing tale of love among opposites, published by Good Puppy, Marina Tito and Lorenzo Di Alessandro introduce us to an odd pair.

Kiwi, a prissy house cat, complaints about Dougie, a cheerful puppy, with whom she shares a roof and sometimes a little more than she would like to. In a sibling like rant, Kiwi tell us how Dougie chews on every toy, how her stuff he would destroy, how he stole all of her treasures, how he buried them with pleasure, how he chased out all the birds, without even saying a word, how he’s lazy and he’s messy and how he always drove her crazy.

As Kiwi goes on, she seems to run out of complains and starts seeing the positive side of having a friend like Dougie. From his comfortable hair to him following her anywhere, or when they went to the park when Dougie saved her with a bark. Kiwi’s perspective changes to reflect the joy Dougie brings into her life.

Dougie & Kiwi - Daily Adventures puts a whimsical spotlight on our best friend and worst enemy, our own point of view.

In Shelby Sheep in Color Me Happy, published by Good Puppy, Marina Tito and Lorenzo Di Alessandro draw up a little black sheep for a colorful educational tale.

Shelby was the only black sheep in her herd, which made her friends jealous as they all wished to be unique. So, Shelby suggests they play with some paints to find their own colors.

As the sheep jump into the paint buckets, they don’t like what they become, orange like an orange, green as an olive or purple like a grape. It isn’t easy to be different, what will mom say? So, Shelby suggests they jump into the third color to turn them all a dark brown. The sheep abide and love the results, since now they all match!

No longer concerned with their coats, they all continue to search for their personal color, since mixing them has become their favorite game. Shelby Sheep in Color Me Happy is a guide to the simple magic of mixing colors, which launches a seekers’ quest for beauty of divine inspiration, leaving the material focus of coats behind.
