It has been way too long since I posted.  I am going to really try to do weekly posts. Especially since I have started writing my 4th book.  I thought it would be very neat to share my process with everyone.  It is an interesting process, with lots of brainstorming, editing, and story development.  I will say after a very special article was shared in the USC iNTERCOM Alumni Magazine, about my books... I quickly decided what my 4th book would be about.  I am going to post the article below. Can you guess what the next Cricket and Izzy book will be about?   I will post the answer tomorrow.

I have been working on this 3rd book in the Cricket and Izzy Series for almost a year! I do honestly believe this is the BEST one yet. I was inspired to write this book, when Izzy had puppies. The adventures during that 6 weeks, as Cricket became so curious, and Izzy so protective of her new pups... the storyline unfolded right in front of my eyes. I have a new illustrator now. Kati Lewis is the Art teacher at Gallman Elementary, where we both work. Our personalities and passion for what we do made this partnership perfect!

Cricket and Izzy's ABC Adventure is now published and available for purchase, I am so very proud of this book, and I know everyone will love it. I am going to post below some pages from the book. Let me know what you think. The book is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and several other book stores. I can get books directly sent to me, and I am able to sell these to my friends at a much lower cost. If you are interested, email me at laneycobb1@gmail.com.

A little about the book:
Cricket and Izzy's ABC Adventure is the second book written by Laney Cobb. Cricket's Capers is the first book written in the Cricket and Izzy Children's Picture Book Series. Cricket, a teacup yorkie, and Izzy, a boykin spaniel, are together again in this easy and fun ABC book. This ABC book is full of excitement, as Cricket and Izzy adventure around their lake house. From riding in the boat listening to "M" music, and then needing a "N" nap, this book will keep you wondering what adventure the dogs will encounter with each letter of the alphabet. Readers will learn more about these two characters, and will ultimately realize their passion for learning to read. This book is written in a rhythmic pattern with rhyming, which engages readers from the beginning. Each page has 2 letters, in puppy paw font, which connects the dog theme throughout the entire alphabet. The situations throughout the book are playful, and funny. The illustrations are simple, and done with crayon. The book is written and illustrated in a format, which makes for easy sharing, and children of all ages to enjoy. Readers will fall in love with Cricket and Izzy, and the "dog alphabet" letters, all the while being inspired to read.The voice, throughout this picture book, is fun, informative, and absolutely entertaining.

Finally I will have time to add pictures to the blog.  It has been such a fun year. I am hoping that the 2nd Cricket and Izzy book will be published over the summer. I had so many awesome adventures during the school year, sharing Cricket and her book with excited boys and girls around South Carolina.
