World-Famous
Springer Spaniel, ‘Maggie’, Woofs Way into Over 87 Countries with Whimsical New
Children’s Book. Since establishing her now award-winning blog,
MaggieMooseTracks®, Mari Campbell has inspired thousands of readers with stories
of her lovable and always-entertaining Springer Spaniel. Since the release of
her debut children’s book based on a fictionalized Maggie, 'MaggieMooseTracks®:
Making Friends' has become a barking hit in over eighty-seven
countries.
For
Immediate Release
Menlo
Park, CA – Just like the old
adage that says a dog is man’s best friend, Maggie the English Springer Spaniel
and owner Mari Campbell are an inseparable duo that have rapidly captured the
hearts of people around the world – in over 87 countries to be exact!
Their
unique human and hound relationship first gained fame in 2012 when Campbell
launched her blog, MaggieMooseTracks®, to share adventurous and entertaining
stories about Maggie. However, after
winning no
less than a dozen awards (including
‘Blog of the Year’ and ‘The Addictive Blog Award’), Campbell quickly realized
that Maggie’s influence could stretch farther than an online journal.
“Feedback
from readers made it clear that the stories of Maggie were imparting vital life
lessons for all ages. Word of the blog was quickly spreading. A children’s book
series seemed like a natural fit,” says Campbell.
Synopsis:
Maggie
is an English Springer Spaniel puppy with moose antlers who gets lost on the way
to her new family. When Maggie’s lost in the woods...will Alfonso the alligator
eat her? Or will the other dangers get her before she can find her new
family?
Campbell
is thrilled with both the book and the response it has garnered.
“People of all ages are reading it; even adults with no children! This is a
true testament to Maggie and her knack for inspiring happiness around the world.
The book is now available worldwide and I’ve already had it translated into
Japanese – it will be available at the end of August, 2013. There’s no stopping
Maggie and her determination!” she adds.
Since
its release, the book has collected a consistent string of rave reviews.
“MaggieMooseTracks®
- making friends is a truly wonderful story of friendship and fun. My five year
old daughter and myself thoroughly enjoyed reading all about Maggie’s antics and
the friends she made along the way. We cannot wait to see what little Maggie
gets up to next!” says Kirsty-Lee Masters, reviewing the book on Amazon.
Trella
Davis was equally as impressed, adding, “The theme of realizing that you are
precious, was just ... precious. The characters, story and moose-antlered dog
Maggie have us hooked now. The writing is smart, funny, and endearing; also has
some deeper messages that come out well.”
To
accompany the book, Campbell recently announced that a line of Maggie
merchandise is in the works. With plush toys expected to be available within the
next one to two months, any child (or adult!) can have a Maggie of their
own.
With
her unstoppable energy and life-changing outlook, everyone is waiting to see
what Maggie will get up to next! In the short term, the next book –
‘MaggieMooseTracks® Christmas Star’ – is due for release in September of
2013.
