THE
DOG THAT MANAGED HEDGE FUNDS: A NOVEL
Nancy Parsons
The Cheshire Press
A corrupt hedge funds manager, convicted of bilking his wealthy
clients out of billions, dies of a heart attack in a prison cell and regains
consciousness in an animal shelter cage. He has come back to life as a
dog. Sheila Thibedeau is a down-on-her-luck animal communicator. The two
meet and the story unfolds.
A wickedly funny story about a decidedly wicked character.
Reviews:
The Dog That Managed Hedge Funds is a strong pick for general fiction
collections.
Midwest Book Review
Nancy Parsons has created some wonderful, eccentric human and non-human
characters that really make this story shine. Catching myself laughing
out loud many times, I found this novel to be the perfect escape to treat
myself to at the end of a very stressful day.
Paige Lovett, Reader Views
Sheila and Harrison played well together, sort of a Gracie Allen and
George Burns relationship. Harrison easily stole the show even though
Sheila was a narrator. This book not only brought a smile but made me
laugh out loud.

BALD
AS A BEAN. THE EXPERIENCE OF SUDDEN HAIR LOSS
Nancy Parsons
The Cheshire Press
In Bald As A Bean, a woman diagnosed with alopecia areata universalis,
learns to cope with her baldness and is eventually able to share her story
with calm vision and touches of humor.
Review:
By sharing such a personal struggle, Nancy shows us that through perseverance
and self reflection, one can find the strength to live with the disease.
The journey of shock, denial, fear, anger, and depression, is a journey
worth taking. Not only do I recommend Bald as a Bean, The Experience of
Sudden Hair Loss to those suffering from alopecia or hair loss due to
a treatment such as chemotherapy, but as well, to those who enjoy reading
true stories about the triumph of the human spirit.

YE
CANNA JOIN IN OOR GAMES
Nancy Parsons
The Cheshire Press
If yours was a Scottish-American childhood, this book is guaranteed
to revive your own memories of growing up in a Scots family.
Reviews:
I cannot believe how similar our experiences were growing up in a Scottish
household … seven years of wasted panno lessons, annual Scotch Picnices
at Kennywood Park, Harry Lauder and Willy Fife and … Granny lugging
me off to Sunday School at the Sunset Hills U.P. “kirk.” What
a grand “wee” book.
Jim Coull, Veteran of a Scottish American childhood
Regretfully, I just finished your book. Regretfully because I wanted
it to go on and on. What a delight! Your book brought back so many, many
memories. I absolutely must get it for my own children and for my cousin,
Jean, who will certainly enjoy it as much as I did.
