About the Authors - Gee Family

The first four books of 'Boar and Family Books' by Cindy and Gus Gee are based upon true stories. We envision that readers from age two to 102 will delight in getting to know Boar's family. We suggest getting someone on your lap to turn pages as you read and jump into the world of Boar and the family.

​

Years ago, Cindy had a black lab. Martha was adorable and well behaved. Cindy worked in a nursing home and would bring Martha to work as a therapy dog for the residents. One day Cindy and I went to a pet food store to get Martha some food. There, we found a stuffed dog chew toy. It was a Boar. We brought Boar home.  Martha, the dog, played with her pretty rough, and caused the toy to squawk! Boar had a squeeze box in her.

 

​Well, she was so darn cute, we would not let Martha play with her anymore. Boar had become a daughter to us. Since then, we have acquired Junior, a gecko from the Rain Forest Cafe, and Hardy, a bear from the State Fair.  Each has a personality of their own.

​

These three have been our kids since 2010 or so. We would tell Cindy's mom what our kids were doing and she would just laugh and chuckle. Cindy's mom, (kid's grandma) has told us from early on that we should write these stories down. Well, in August of 2023, we started to do just that. Cindy is the illustrator; I, Gus, am the author.

​

We hope you enjoy the antics and love of our family as much as we do.
