Ninja Puppy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986640808)

In this first book of the Ninja Puppy Series, Ninja puppy embarks on a wonderful path with some very special people who come together to form a very happy Ninja Family.

At the time Ninja Puppy was written, 5-year-old Gunner had been asking to be a big brother for quite a while. His family had some trouble with growing, and in an attempt to help Gunner feel like he had a friend at home, his parents got him a rowdy, little, black, standard poodle. That, along with Gunner's fascination with Ninjas and his talent for storytelling and art, resulted in Ninja Puppy.

Other books currently in this series include Ninja Puppy and the Donut Avalanche written in 2020, Ninja Puppy VS Bigfoot written in 2021, and Ninja Puppy in China written in 2022.

Gunner J Duck lives with his family in Northwest Arkansas where he enjoys all that life in the Ozarks has to offer. Gunner has always been known throughout his school as being a very precocious reader and a creative artist and storyteller. He was reading books at age 3 and by the time he entered kindergarten, he was reading chapter books, and testing well above his own grade level in all areas. In 2019, at age 5, Gunner's kindergarten teacher suggested that he enter a statewide book writing contest. Gunner wrote his first book titled Ninja Puppy, which won first place in the PBS Kids Writers Contest in Arkansas. He enjoyed writing his first book so much that he decided to work on his very own series. Altogether, his books have won awards in 7 different PBS Kids Writer's Contests to date. Gunner's stories are in many ways, a representation of his life and of the experiences he has had. He hopes that through his books, he can inspire children everywhere to read, imagine, set goals and work hard to reach them, be kind, and have self-control.
