Will Sock make it home with the duo at the end of the trip? Book Description: I began writing THE RAMBEE BOO SERIES after we added a fur baby to our family, during the Covid-19 pandemic quarantine. The characters in the series are based off my youngest son Rocky (aka Rock), and our rambunctious puppy Rambo (aka Rambee Boo). Whenever there's trouble, these two are usually at the center of it! I graduated from West Windsor-Plainsboro High school in 2000 and went on to get my B.A. from Rutgers University, New Brunswick. I currently live in New Jersey with my husband, my three children and of course…my Rambee Boo! I've always had a great love for children's books and started collecting them in college. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to write my own series to add to our collection. I hope these books will continue to grow and foster children's love for reading. I can only hope that my readers enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them! connect with the author: website ~ facebook ~ instagram ~ goodreads Tour Schedule: May 24 – My Journey Back the Journey Back – book review / giveaway May 24 - Cover Lover Book Review – book review / giveaway May 25 – Rockin' Book Reviews – book review / guest post / giveaway May 25 - She Just Loves Books – book review / giveaway May 26 – Pick a Good Book – book review / author interview / giveaway May 27 – Icefairy's Treasure Chest – book review / giveaway May 28 – Writer with Wanderlust – book review / guest post / giveaway May 31 – Nighttime Reading Center – book review / giveaway May 31 - Kam's Place – book review June 1 – Reading is My Passion – book review June 2 – I'm Into Books – book review / giveaway June 2 - The Adventures of a Travelers Wife – book review / guest post / giveaway June 3 – Jazzy Book Reviews – book review / author interview / giveaway June 4 – Cheryl's Book Nook – book review / giveaway June 7 – Splashes of Joy – book review / author interview / giveaway June 8 – Locks, Hooks and Books – book review / giveaway June 9 – Bound 4 Escape – book review / giveaway June 9 - Laura's Interests – book review / guest post / giveaway June 10 – Gina Rae Mitchell – book review / author interview / giveaway June 11 – Lisa's Reading – book review / giveaway Enter the Giveaway:

A delight for the mind and a visual feast for young book lovers and their parents, each page features an alphabet letter and a highly colorful animal mosaic along with quirky, funny memorable phrases.
