Lindsay Puckett - Author

Scholastic middle-grade author Lindsay Puckett lives in a tiny apartment in Ohio where there are too many books, just the right amount of pet hair, and never enough house plants. She has a Bachelor’s in psychology and enjoys creating videos for her YouTube channel where she shares her publication journey and helps other writers along their own. 
 
Her debut novel, THE GLASS WITCH, is perfect for fans of Hocus Pocus and features a sassy bunny side-kick, Rosie. 
 
THE GLASS WITCH Synopsis:
 
12-year-old Adelaide Goode has never been good enough.

Ever the disappointment, she's the weakest witch born in three centuries and has absolutely zero chance—as the town's fat girl—of winning the Cranberry Hollow Halloween pageant. But winning brings glory, and glory means proving herself worthy of the Goode name, which is all Addie's ever wanted.

What she most certainly does not want, however, is to enact a curse, waking a 300-year-old witch hunter from the grave. Not to mention the curse has turned Addie's bones into glass, sprouting more and more cracks as midnight approaches-which makes it terribly hard to run in heels.

With the aid of an ancient spellbook, a monster-obsessed neighbor, and a twitchy-nosed, furry friend, Addie must hunt down three ingredients to break the curse before the hunter not only ruins the pageant, but erases magic-and her-from the town.

Sherwood Pet Health

It is our mission to provide pet parents with the best, scientifically backed, nutritional products that will help their loved ones to live the happiest and most healthy lives possible. Sherwood is the maker of the only soy/grain-free food and nutrition products in the U.S. and around the world. We have vet offices, rescue groups, including the HRS centers that sell, use and recommend our foods. We hope to influence and educate pet parents everywhere about their pets nutritional, environmental, and emotional health and wellness needs. We will continue to make efforts in serving and aiding in the adoption and rescue process of these small animals with the aim that they are placed in forever homes with educated caretakers.

We have adopted pets from a local shelter or other caretakers involved in rescuing and fostering neglected pets. We are fully committed to the ideology of the HRS regarding animal welfare by providing our own pets with healthy living environments, proper nutrition, regular veterinary care and social/emotional interactions with their own species and with their caretaker who is educated on the principles of training through positive reinforcement. Our pets are our official taste testers used in improving the palatability of our foods, Recovery & Appetite Restore and Support Tablets.

We aim to set the bar high and continuously improve the health and nutritional status of all pets through research and the development of alternative health care options. Our methods of research involve rigorously studying previously published research in all disciplines and formulating ethical minimally invasive experiments that do not harm or reduce the quality of life or wellbeing of any animal. Terminal research isn’t necessary or justified. Technology has been developed for the human health sector to assess a wide variety of health related metrics that are useful in obtaining the needed information to improve the life and health of our furry loved ones. We can’t imagine it any other way.

We are members of the Association of Exotic Mammal Veterinarians (AEMV). Research projects aimed at answering more complex questions will first be approved through this channel that requires detailed research proposals to be submitted and reviewed by the AEMV board committee members.
