Welcome to Just Keep Zippin' BOOKS! Just Keep Zipping

 

Just Keep Zippin' Books - Join Doctor Zippy, the encouraging and uplifting horse, as he interacts with his animal patients in the Just Keep Zippin' series of books addressing challenges faced by kids.


  

Born of a creative endeavor to celebrate our real therapy horse, Zippy,  our series of new children’s books are written with a heart for glorious kiddos growing up in an increasingly anxious and challenging world.


 Doc Zippy's kind insights inspire forward motion, confidence, and resilience versus the quicksand-like “Why?” questions of hard circumstances. The hope of our hearts is that you'll Just Keep Zipping!

Book #1 Hair We Go!

 

Hair We Go! Precious and Fur-Less

Doc Zippy sees Harry, a hairless cat who has been feeling really down about not having fur. Zippy reminds him of how his unique qualities bring comfort to his owner, Cindy, who is losing her own hair due to medical treatments!

Book #2 Ears to Hear

  

Ears to Hear! Boom Boom gets to Hear and be a Champ!

Doc Zippy sees Boom Boom, an elephant who needs hearing aids. Zippy finds ways to help Boom Boom get over his fears of being different in school. Zippy also helps Boom Boom picture the new world of confidence and activities that he’ll be able to enjoy with his new ears. Author Kriss includes personal examples from her own lifelong profound hearing loss. Illustrator daughter Angel (and human hearing aid with ironically supersonic hearing of her own) captures imagery and concepts from real family & school situations.

Hoovescriptions that Work

 

Doc Zippy the Horse Examines His Animal Patients

Zippy’s insights and “Hoovescriptions” guide his patients through common worries and challenges faced by young children. New ways of thinking, encouragement, and solutions empower each patient in the series to conquer the challenges, and to celebrate the positive impacts they can have on others.

Upcoming Books! Ten More on the Way

Doc Zippy treats Trax the TRex train conductor who needs glasses.  And Shimmer Cherie, the Scottish Fold kitty who breaks her leg the last day of school before summer break.
