A True Texas Story About Miss Doofey, the Orphaned OPossum
Miss Doofey Opossum is an epic poem, written, designed, and illustrated by the author, Anne Boykin.
 
Autographed by the author, this story is true and takes place in Brazos County and Austin, Texas, and tells about the life of an orphaned baby opossum rescued by the author's brother and his best friend.
 
The baby was given to the author's children to raise with the hopes of releasing the opossum back into the wild. The charming and colorful illustrations help to tell Miss Doofey's story, as do the actual photos of Miss Doofey.
 
If you would like to have Anne personalize her autograph so you can give it as a gift, just let us know in the comments section.  It'll take a few days longer but it'll make Miss Doofey Opossum even more special.
 
Technical information on opossums and their necessary value in our ecosystem follows after the poem. This book will delight a young audience and parents, as well.
 
32 pages, 9 illustrations, 32 photographs
 
About the author:
 
An accomplished artist and calligrapher who spent 30 years in Austin, Texas, Anne Boykin returned to her home town of College Station, Texas in 2004. She quickly made her mark working for the City managing Project HOLD -- an historic online library database dedicated to historic preservation efforts. In 2011, Anne joined the Texas A&M University Engineering Extension Service (TEEX) as a graphic designer. There, she won four national awards for her book designs. Her freelance work includes military maps for four authors. Her expertise is evident in noted public installations of 38 historical interpretive panels for area parks. Anne attended both Texas A&M University and Arizona State University. She has two children and three grandchildren, all of whom she adores.   (footnote:  Anne is also one of my dearest childhood friends, we grew up together).
