Screenshot 2016-06-23 at 3.27.13 PMThis week Carolyn Choate sits down with her old friend, New Hampshire illustrator Jill Weber, and New York Times bestselling children’s book author Julie Salamon to talk about their latest collaboration: An adventure story for middle-school aged kids, “Mutt’s Promise.”

Because the “adventure” part involves the dogs’ escape from a puppy mill, the book is being promoted as an anti-puppy mill tale.  Watch and learn about how the book came to be, and why its message is resonating with local young people, one of loyalty, courage and lessons learned from your mom.

Some proceeds from book sales will support the work of Greater Nashua Humane Society, among other Humane Societies.

About this Author

Carolyn R. Choate

Carolyn overcame stage 3 breast cancer in 2003 because she thought she knew a lot about health and food. Turns out she didn’t know beans about health food. But all that changed on March 2, 2022 - the day after she was diagnosed with advanced Hurthle Cell thyroid cancer - when she joined the epigenetic diet revolution. Using phytochemicals found in nature’s astonishing bounty of plants, she reclaimed her life and earned her certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from the T. Campbell Colin Center for Nutritional Studies through eCornell to help herself and others suffering from chronic disease. Carolyn is passionate about sharing all the life-affirming reasons to be vegan.
