I'm pawfully pleased to tell you about The Kitten's Tale, which is the fifth book in my daughter Trump's "Pet Vet" series. Trump uses the same biographers I do. The Kitten's Tale is available in Australia and the US. In it, Trump has a problem when she meets Magnus, a small cat with big ideas. Meanwhile, Major Higgins has a problem, Whiskey the cockatoo has gone AWOL and one of my old enemies is loose in Trump's hometown.</div>Sally_Odgershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08556799528006564605noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5316800286848154893.post-47267427695778773802010-01-20T13:43:00.000-08:002010-01-20T13:45:58.836-08:00Jack 12!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAU3dvvTy2E4A9hifQWHLRh2jf7eZngA19r3V7u-QaY_-jL2gA96nzHzK-Eqo0eDWebdzJPMCJXfr3hWLZMqq_tddhKTOrDPDI0MXt7Holmut8tNzaRXdfHkpLq3-pflblr7kNiWq1qHo/s1600-h/hamheistfc.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 132px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAU3dvvTy2E4A9hifQWHLRh2jf7eZngA19r3V7u-QaY_-jL2gA96nzHzK-Eqo0eDWebdzJPMCJXfr3hWLZMqq_tddhKTOrDPDI0MXt7Holmut8tNzaRXdfHkpLq3-pflblr7kNiWq1qHo/s200/hamheistfc.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428941520033037058" /></a><br />I'm back in my twelfth adventure, The Ham Heist.

My authors, Darrel and Sally, have these suggestions.</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"><br /></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">1. If you are at school, or if you know someone who is, order through the Scholastic Book Club. </span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"><br /></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">2. Go to your local bookshops. If you can't see the titles you want on the shelf, ask the assistant. If the assistant says the books are "not in stock", ask him or her to order them for you. You will need to quote the title(s), author and publisher.</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">3. Go to an on-line book shop. There are lots, including Booktopia (at </span></strong><a href="http://www.booktopia.com.au/"><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">http://www.booktopia.com.au</span></strong></a><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"> ). If you order through them, they get the books from the supplier for you.</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">4. You can also telephone Scholastic directly and order the titles. (There is a small packing fee.)</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">5. You can ]order through Amazon, but you need to be careful as the UK editions have different covers and different titles. Read the blurb to make sure you don't order the same book twice. There are French Canadian editions, but the two US editions and the English-language Canadian editions are very much like the Australian ones, and have the same titles and covers.</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">6. Bolinda Audio ( at </span></strong><a href="http://www.bolinda.com/aus/"><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">http://www.bolinda.com/aus/</span></strong></a><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"> ) have the first few on CD - they're ace, and not at expensive as most audio books.</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">7.
