Wolfie
Book One, Story Three
Wolfie’s shiny black coat and thick mane and forelock makes him look so cute and adorable. But, don’t be fooled! This Shetland pony has a very feisty personality and is a favorite of many of the young riders at the Capital Area Therapeutic Riding Association (CATRA) in Grantville, Pennsylvania. The real John’s dedication and love of the real Wolfie inspired the story, “Wolfie, the Most Beautiful Pony in the World.” John not only rode Wolfie at CATRA and at many horse shows, but he also could “drive” Wolfie, meaning that Wolfie can pull a cart or carriage. Wolfie is a very talented pony!

2nd Grade Teacher North Side Elementary, Harrisburg, PA
Cynthia came to North Side Elementary for an author’s visit assembly for students at our elementary school. Each classroom had prepared for her visit by reading Adventures at Green Apple Acres. The stories were engaging and fun. Each story taught a life lesson to which students could easily relate. The children were very excited for the presentation and Cynthia didn’t let them down. She was wonderful. She showed the kids pictures of the real animals that the characters in her stories were based on. She talked about the writing process and inspired our young authors to keep up their hard work.
