Author Releases Long-Awaited Holiday Sequel to Her Best-Selling Children's Book

ATLANTA - Oct. 15, 2024 - PRLog -- Jan-Carol Publishing, Inc., of Johnson City, Tennessee, is excited to announce the nationwide release of Maggie the Cat Loves Pip's Thanksgiving Surprise, the sequel to the best-selling children's book Maggie the Cat Who Came Home for Christmas by Julia Russo!

Julia Russo spent many winters in the mountains along with her little dog, Chloe, and her sweet husband, Kent. She lives in Atlanta, but her heart is really in those woods. One of her favorite things ever was hearing her first graders read aloud. She sometimes wrote for the government and companies, and later wrote descriptions of homes. She even spent time as what is called a roustabout! Russo continues to visit her mountainside cabin often. One of these days, she's hoping to get a little goat.

Russo's debut children's book, Maggie the Cat Who Came Home for Christmas, premiered in 2023 and became an overnight success—topping the Amazon best-seller list just one day after the book's release.

Now, the author brings readers back to Grandpa Charlie Green's farm with Maggie the Cat Loves Pip's Thanksgiving Surprise. Pip will soon have a Thanksgiving surprise, but what exactly will it be? Will it have to do with the treats in the oven? Pecan pie with oatmeal? Cornbread? Dutch apple pie? Or will it have to do with a new park for all of us children to play in being built at our neighbor's farm?

Will it have to do with little Barney—the littlest goat ever—who is really working hard and chomp, chomp, chomping away to make the park soft and free of brush? Or finally, will it have to do with Pip's best friend, Maggie? Read along and let's find out together. We don't have that long. Thanksgiving is coming very soon!

Maggie the Cat Loves Pip's Thanksgiving Surprise and Maggie the Cat Who Came Home for Christmas are available through Amazon, Barnes&Noble.com, and directly through JCP.
