Let's Talk: Ozzy Ox book series

If fun and rhyming are what you're all about, there is a book series you may want to check out. Ozzy Ox is a new children's book character created by local author Callen Kropp. The idea of writing a children's book has been with Kropp for years, but the busyness of life always got in the way. It wasn't until a health scare last fall that she decided now was the time. Some of the inspiration for the stories comes from her personal life. For example, the first book she wrote was "Ozzy Ox Takes a Stand Against Socks" which was inspired by one of her grandchildren, who hated to wear socks when he was little. That will be the last book released in the series. North Dakota artist, Emily Erickson Hagen is the illustrator for the book series. She was enlisted after being asked by Kropp. She said that this project was challenging but fun as it was the first time she had illustrated a cartoon-type book.
