Raven and Theo
Book Two, Story One
These two cat brothers, both solid black with piercing yellow eyes, were brought to my new farm as young kittens as a gift from a friend from her farm. Two black kittens and one gray-and-white kitten were in that litter. The entire “family” was gifted to me for my new barn and farm. New to any kind of cats, I didn’t know if they would stay or run away, but they stayed and are still at my farm. I named them Raven, Cleo and Angel, but when I had them spayed and neutered and learned that Cleo was a boy cat, I renamed him Theo, for a “cool cat” African-American man whom I knew from a job I had in the corporate world in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. His name is Theo Braddy. He knows this barn cat is named for him! So, Raven and Theo and Angel still live happily at my farm, roaming the woods and napping in sunbeams on bales of hay…just like all the cats at Green Apple Acres!
What Our Readers Say…
My great niece, Gianna, loves animals and I knew the Adventures at Green Apple Acres book series would be a wonderful Christmas gift for her, so I purchased all three books. Gianna read the stories in all three books and enjoyed all of the adventures of the farm animals. To add to the excitement, I arranged a visit to Cynthia’s farm for Gianna and me. Gianna got to meet Shiloh! Those two bonded like they knew each other forever! We could tell in Gianna’s eyes during our visit that she was on top of the world! Many of the animals at Cynthia’s farm are in the stories of her books. Thank you, Cynthia, for writing these stories. The stories not only give children an opportunity to escape into another world, but also, they teach life lessons. Gianna and I are looking forward to future books and more adventures for the animals on the farm!
