Judy Roberts, an author and pet groomer, has completed her first book "Just What is a Pooka Pup?": an endearing and adventurous romp through childhood imagination and beyond. Join the author as she takes you along Puppy Lane and all its loveable inhabitants.

On how she would describe the book and its characters, author Judy Roberts said, "My book is a funny little story about an ornery Pekingese that has a knack for finding trouble. It has a bit of mystery and some 'Puppy Love.' It touches on the effects of prejudice and the hurtfulness of bullying. It's really funny and sweet and most surely will bring a smile."

Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Judy Roberts' poignant tale is full of vibrant imagery and an engrossing story. This is a family book that will be loved by children and parents alike.

In Windham County, Connecticut, there exists a road called Puppy Lane. It is a row of six farms that are very well known in the northeastern part of the country. But these farms don't grow crops nor raise animals like cows or horses or chickens or goats. These farms grow and raise beautiful dogs. Each farm grows their own breed and do not raise the exact same breed of dog as other farms. Yet they share the same purpose and that is to provide the best of their own breed.

Mr. Ben Moore and Mr. Tom Roberts, owners of the last two farms in Puppy Lane, were once the best of friends. But something happened to cause a rift between them. Their wives Lily and Judy did almost everything to heal their relationship, but the men just stubbornly refused to cooperate. With this dispute, something amazing will happen.

"Just What is a Pooka Pup?" is a story about true and lasting friendship and all the fun-filled dog experience in between. From Yorkshire terrier, Shih Tzu, Schnauzer, Cocker Spaniels, Poodles, Pekingese, and a whole lot more, "Just What is a Pooka Pup?" will make the reader want to read on more.

Readers who wish to experience this endearing work can purchase"Just What is a Pooka Pup?" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
