ATLANTA - s4story -- Jan-Carol Publishing, Inc., of Johnson City, Tennessee, is excited to announce that Maggie the Cat Loves Pip's Thanksgiving Surprise, the best-selling sequel to Maggie the Cat Who Came Home for Christmas by Julia Russo, is on sale all weekend long!

Julia Russo spent many winters in the mountains along with her little dog, Chloe, and her sweet husband, Kent. She lives in Atlanta, but her heart is really in those woods. She spent time as a teacher, wrote for the government and companies, and later wrote descriptions of homes. She even spent time as what is called a roustabout!

Russo's debut children's book, Maggie the Cat Who Came Home for Christmas, premiered in 2023 and became an overnight success—topping the Amazon best-seller list just one day after the book's release. Following suit, Russo's second book also topped the Amazon best-seller list the day following its release on October 15, 2024!

In Maggie the Cat Loves Pip's Thanksgiving Surprise the author brings readers back to Grandpa Charlie Green's farm. Pip will soon have a Thanksgiving surprise, but what exactly will it be? Will it have to do with the treats in the oven? Pecan pie with oatmeal? Cornbread? Dutch apple pie? Or will it have to do with a new park for all of us children to play in being built at our neighbor's farm?
