Patti Calkosz
Like my debut novel, I am set in NYC, where I often took care of other people’s cats but now have my own, as well as sleep deprivation.
Praise for Olaf and Essex
“This funny, sentimental, and heartfelt tale highlights the importance of family, multi-species or otherwise…entertaining and emotional…tugs at the heartstrings before it ends with a memorable denouement.”
“Will entertain children and adults alike . . . a beautifully warm and heartfelt story that will stay with readers long after they finish it.”
