When was the last time you woke up on the wrong side of bed? How did that work for you? In Ozzy Ox: Moody Morning, the young Ozzy begins his day with some choice words for his cat. Finn Cat’s raucous response is a screech heard around the Land of Ox, and Ozzy is soon in disbelief how quickly the neighborhood comes together while the day falls apart. Is Ozzy able to address the consequences of his moody morning? Ozzy Ox: Moody Morning is a hilarious tale sure to resonate with your children.
"This is a great story to encourage young people to be accepting of others and ready to forgive and, most importantly, to make better choices so disastrous events like those caused by Ozzy Ox’s temper tantrum don’t happen again."

Ozzy Ox: Toy Trauma
"Ozzy Ox: Toy Trauma" is not just a story; it's a vehicle for teaching children about understanding, compassion, and the importance of taking responsibility for their actions. The vibrant and endearing illustrations complement the narrative beautifully, making it an engaging and visually appealing reading experience."
An ER isn’t where you’d expect a lad to show concern for others. But Ozzy Ox Toy Trauma delivers a tender moment of compassion when you least expect it.

Ozzy Ox Stands Against Socks
“Oh no!,” wailed Ozzy, in a fit.
“Will I wear socks? No no! I’ve quit!
I just hate socks, you know that’s true.
They bind my hooves and make them blue!”
“I never find a matching pair.
One disappears, right in thin air!
And what is worse than any ox
Who goes without at least one sock?”
