If you have been reading the blog for any length of time you will remember Cappuccino the bunny. For the new readers, Cappuccino was a bunny that my husband found hopping around our home in Montana. He managed to catch him and he was soon lording it over the cats and ruling our lives.
Cappuccino became quite popular on my Instagram feed and through that I made some new friends who also had bunnies. One of those “people” was a stuffed bunny named Thumper. Thumper of course has a human and her name is Katie.
Make a Wish Foundation
Katie was sick as a young child and she was offered a wish through the Make a Wish Foundation. It was her express desire to meet Johnny Depp. Well lo and behold she and her family were soon on a plane and whisked off to London where he was filming Dark Shadows. She had an amazing time and it lifted her spirits just when she needed it the most.
Since then Katie has worked with Make a Wish helping to grant wishes as a way of giving back. In addition she wrote a book called Thumper’s Hospital Adventure. I shared about it on the blog HERE.
(As an aside, if you would like to donate to Make a Wish you can rest assured that your money will spread joy to children who need it at a very trying time.)
A New Thumper Book!
Katie has now written a new book sharing the further adventures of Thumper. In this volume the ever intrepid bunny is off to London!
Thumper has one chance to be reunited with his family.
He must find Big Ben before the clock runs out, or remain lost in London forever.
Plus Katie’s hero, Johnny Depp, has written the forward for her.
