Zoie is a cute little boxer puppy who loves playing with everything in her new home, even things she's not supposed to touch! She's also very clumsy. Zoie doesn't know she is doing anything wrong, so when her owner, Ms. Jen, yells, "Zoie NO!" she thinks that is her name. There are two other family pets, Kibble the Cat and Fish Fish, who are not friendly to Zoie and ignore her. When Ms. Jen continues yelling "Zoie NO!" they finally explain that her name is just Zoie, and that Ms. Jen is mad at her when she says, "NO." Zoie doesn't believe them because Ms. Jen told her she was such a cute little puppy that she would love her forever. They show Zoie that she has grown up and is not little and cute anymore, and tell her Ms. Jen might send her back. Will Zoie learn how to stay out of trouble? Will Kibble the Cat and Fish Fish help her? In Zoie NO! The Little Boxer Puppy, find out if Ms. Jen will ever call her just "Zoie."
Inspired by a true story, Zoie NO! The Little Boxer Puppy is JeanField's second children's book. She lives with her husband in Richmond, Texas, and has a married daughter and son, as well as a granddaughter and grandson who live nearby.
