Animals narrating their true adventures!
Sir Prize the Storm Pony
Braving the Storms of Life
Based on true events in the suburbs of Los Angeles, CA and of Town and Country, MO, Sir Prize's bravery was tested time and again. His multiple moves introduced him to new environments, new training, and in many cases, new emotions - including heartbreak. But after his barn flooded, he had to rely on human friendship and children at an equine assisted therapy program to give him a renewed appreciation for life. But how did Sir Prize handle all of the storms of life, including unwelcomed emotions? For all of the surprises in store for this pony, he earned his knightly name.

Zebra in the Woods
COMING in 2025!
Based on true events, Einstein, a young zebra foal from Wisconsin, moved to a new life in St Louis, Missouri. His wild nature challenged his trust with humans and other animals. He had to learn to manage his discomfort and distrust using old hanging pants, two tortoises, a small pony, and yes, even humans. When a young boy came into Einstein's life, there was a instant connection between the two. But how did an exotic animal like Einstein learn to balance the need for the wild and love for his special humans? An unconventional connection between human nature and mother nature was what this zebra in the woods needs.

Hi! I'm Carin Thamke
She grew up on a farm in rural, southeast Missouri which ignited the love of agriculture in her soul. She studied Agricultural Journalism at the University of Missouri-Columbia and moved to the Saint Louis, Missouri area after graduating. She currently works within the agriculture industry in business and IT strategy.
She’s married with three children, including two stepchildren. When she’s not working, she loves to ride her motorcycle, watch her daughter’s musical performances, and relax at their family cabin. She and her husband plan to move to southeast Missouri after they retire.
I enjoyed writing these books. I think there are many aspects of these events that teach us all lessons about animal behaviors, building trust with your animals, and helping others in time of need. Thanks to all of you who have supported me during this writing journey. Thank you in advance to all of my readers. This is for you. - Carin
