Tillie's Tale combines a love for animals with the whimsical workings of a Green Witch and her apprentice, as well as a touch of history, all told from George, the magical dog’s point of view. This volume of the Magical Drool Mysteries series, Tillie’s Tale, is highly entertaining as well as informative and a delight to read. While Mindy Mymudes thinks she's best known for her Master's work in biology, she is best known as she who gets run over by the Muddy Paws Pack English Springer Spaniels. Mindy insists she's the alpha dog; the dogs think she's delusional. She hunts, cleans the den, and keeps them entertained. When the pack allows her to escape, she enjoys digging in the dirt, listening to audiobooks, teaching genetics, and weaving the antics of the pack into stories. The two-legged alpha male, Tall Dude, just shakes his head and stays out of the way. Mindy is the author of Amazon bestselling children's book GEORGE KNOWS from MuseItUp Press. GEORGE KNOWS also won the Predators and Editors Best Children's book in 2014 and Readers' Favorite Gold Medal for Best Children's Book Grades 4th thru 6th. The second book of the Magical Drool Mysteries, TILLIE'S TALE, was released in March, 2015. The series stars the magical drool-producing basset hound, George. He knows it all, from the environment to history to magic. If he doesn't know it, then it isn't worth knowing. George knows!
