"LIFTING HER FUZZY face, Lexie gave a ferocious growl..."
 
Linda O. Johnston has a series called Kendra Ballantyne, Petsitter
Mysteries.  She wrote a book entitled "Nothing to Fear But Ferrets."
 
This book actually came out the beginning of August 2005 and Ms. Johnston
was nice enough to donate two autographed copies for the raffle at HOFA's
Ferret Buckeye Bash held the 27th of August.  It's a cute read.
