What
Ms. Lively,
A retired School Librarian,
has to say. |
“Peg
Sundberg is an animal lover with a certain affinity for
horses and dogs. Her books are not only entertaining
but contain positive and humane life lessons. “Crooze
on Croozer” is an especially heartwarming story which
exemplifies kindness and compassion to animals with special
needs.”

Just got my “Crooze On Croozer” books!
As a retired School Librarian I’m telling you, this book
is a Home Run! Accepting others with Disabilities, explaining
Blindness on a level Children can understand, Inclusion,
Diversity…it is without a doubt a book that Teachers should
have in every classroom! I can’t wait to donate copies
to several Special Campuses. Every single one of Cowgirl
Pegs books are great topics for discussion in a classroom
or at home, but this one, it’s THE BEST by far. Thanks
CP for making hard discussions easy and doing it with fun
stories.

INSIDE THE COWGIRL PEG BOOKS
Click
HERE for a brief sneek-peek slideshow of what is in the
various Cowgirl Peg books.
Welcome to my book barn!
The “Cowgirl Peg
Book Series” currently includes seven entertaining books.
The first six titles are written at an elementary level,
but enjoyed by readers of all ages. The new, seventh book
is a chapter book written for higher elementary through adult
reading levels. I built the series by combining my love
of horses and dogs with powerful character-building messages.
Beautifully illustrated by artist Pat Wiles, the books are
nationally endorsed and highly recommended by parents, young
readers, educators and counselors. Leaving a positive impact
in the lives of thousands of young “Cowgirl Peg” fans is
the biggest reward of all!
The characters in each of the following titles are real!
Actual photos of myself as “Cowgirl Peg”, plus the animals
in the stories, are included at the end of each book.
My first book, Lonesome the Little Horse,
is based on the true story
of a little horse that I rescued
from neglect in 2001. This beautiful
book offers young readers
several important lessons, including
bullying/friendship
and actions vs. consequences, that parents
regularly explain
to their children. The very popular story is
used nationally
in “Red Ribbon” Drug Awareness school programs. $18.00
Next, I published Isabelle Lives a Dream,
the story of a
young city girl with dreams of becoming a
cowgirl.
Built around messages of goal-setting and responsibility,
the story follows Isabelle on a journey to Cowgirl Peg’s
ranch where her dream comes true. Available as Kindle only.
Shortstuff Bucks! arrived in 2005
as my third book.
Told by the horses, this story entertains
readers
with humor, suspense and awesome artwork.
Shortstuff
teaches children to always “believe in
themselves” when facing
challenges and adversity. $18.00
In 2006, I wrote a book that truly came from my heart:
Jazmine’s
Incredible Story. This is the true story
of Jazmine,
theGerman Shepherd who became my best friend
and
constant companion. Previously an abused animal, she
appeared in hundreds of schools with me, meeting and “kissing”
more than 100,000 students. Creating her book truly tested
my writing skills. It is a happy book, but delivers a
continuous, subtle message that “animals have feelings,
too”. $18.00
Okey-Dokey Oakie joined the series
in 2008. Many parents
and educators requested a book that
would help children
deal with peer pressure. This story
does that and more,
including messages about respect, kindness
and making
smart choices. Beautifully illustrated, this animated
story
is filled with imaginative dialogue between Cowgirl
Peg and her horses. $18.00
Cowgirl Peg & the Great Race arrived
in 2011. It is a silly
reunion of all the main animal characters
from each of the
previous books. The horses -- Lonesome,
Shortstuff, Lacey,
Wise Guy, Red and Okey – plus the dogs
Jazmine, Harley
and Muffin share a humorous adventure at
the ranch.
The story delivers a great message about the
importance
of physical exercise and healthy eating along
with teamwork.
It is a beautiful, entertaining book for kids
and grown-ups of all ages! $18.00
The Adventures and Mis-Adventures
of Cowgirl Peg,
copyright 2018,
is now available. Many students in the higher
elementary grades
requested a chapter book. My 93-year-old
father encouraged me
to write a mini-autobiography detailing
some of the many adventures
in my life. Writing about myself
wasn’t easy, but the more I wrote,
the better it got. It
ended up being a very enjoyable project that resulted
in
an entertaining, suspenseful book that includes great life
lessons
for readers. And Pat Wiles, my illustrator, created
an incredible cover
that is nominated for a national award. $14.00
Crooze
on Croozer,
copyright 2023 (available early 2023)
Writing Croozer’s story became a blessing and a big challenge.
I am thankful his “Mom” offered me the opportunity by sharing
his story. After hearing it, I instantly knew he needed to
tell his
own tale. Writing from the perspective of blindness
required
special sensitivity and greatly increased my appreciation
of the
blessing of sight. Delivering Croozer’s message of inspiration
and encouragement through a feel-good story leaves me in
awe
of those who see the world through their superpowers
of hearing,
tasting, smelling, and touching/feeling. $18.00
