Meet the Three Paws

  • Niko, a golden Cocker Spaniel with long floppy ears and a red collar.

    Niko

    A golden Cocker Spaniel with very, very floppy ears. He tells the story, and adventure is his middle name.

  • Luna, a small round pink owl with brown wings and ear tufts.

    Luna

    A young owl, new to Willowbrook. She sees well in the dark, gets sleepy in the daytime, and has feet, not paws!

  • Shelly, a red-brown squirrel with a big curled tail, holding an acorn.

    Shelly

    A squirrel who can climb anything, loves acorns and old maps, and always has a plan.

Book cover art: Niko sits in a meadow below the old oak tree, where Shelly stands on a branch and Luna peeks out of a hollow.

Three Paws: How We Met

by Ollie Ocean · Three Paws, book 1 · ages 4 to 8

Niko loves Willowbrook. He chases butterflies, rolls in the warm sun and dreams of big adventures. But he has nobody to share them with.

Then one morning, a little voice calls from the old oak tree: "Wait! Wait for me!"

A funny, warm read-aloud about how friends come in all shapes and sizes. Some have floppy ears, some have fluffy tails, and some have feet, not paws!

Coming soon in paperback. More about the book
