Welcome to our stop on The Sneezy Wheezy Day Book Blog Tour!
Synopsis: This is the third installment of the Cougar Cub Tales - an award winning children’s picture book series that follows the adventures of a brother and sister cougar cub. In this book, brother cub isn’t feeling well. As he and sister cub seek help for his cold, they encounter many well-intentioned forest friends who offer silly home remedies. One friend even tells brother cub, “Tickle your nose with the tail of a goose and do it before the next blue moon rise!” Although the recommendations help, the final remedy is a sibling’s love.
About the Series: Cramer wrote the first book in the series, Lost and Alone about sibling rivalry, when her youngest son was born 18 years ago. As a mom to two older sons at the time, Cramer says she felt like an expert on “brotherly love” already. The second installment in the series, I’m Just Like You addresses intolerance.
Cramer illustrates the Cougar Cub Tales books in watercolor, with each picture taking her between 18-24 hours to create. She chose cougar cubs because she wanted to create characters that spoke strongly of the Pacific Northwest, where she lives.

Review: Kiddo loved this book! As we read through it, she kept saying, "Momma, that isn't going to work!". She enjoyed finding all the different animals in the book, and we kept stopping so we could discuss the animals and their habitats. So the book not only teaches about a family member's love, it teaches about animals! Yeah! The illustrations are charming and held Kiddo entranced to the end of the book. She had to go back through and tell me all about the animals, after we read it, so I consider it a well done book! It would be a great book to share with older siblings, who may feel a younger one is getting too much attention, as well. We highly recommend it!
And now you can win your own hardback copy!
