Author Information

Dr. Viele was a pediatrician for 30 years and the adoring father of two girls. He spent the past three decades writing little poems inspired by the young minds and sweet innocence of both his patients and children. His attention was captured as he watched them progress through childhood and advance from a land of magic thinking and dreams into a world of reality and structure. ""My Dog Is The Tooth Fairy"" is the first of these poems to be illustrated and published as a children's picture book and it provides a glimpse into such a transitional period and lets us recall some of our favorite childhood memories that should make this a real keepsake book. May we all keep dreaming and expanding our imaginations. Ashley McKeown graduated with a degree in Interior Design and spent years painting murals in children's rooms for both private clients and model homes. Transitioning into children's books felt natural and exciting. Ashley's children have been patients of Dr. Viele since the birth of her first child in 2009. It was not until Dr. Viele retired that the partnership began. Ashley engaged her children, her children's friends and classmates into each imaginary detail to truly show the pure nature of their whimsical dreams. My Dog Is the Tooth Fairy is her impressive debut as a children's picture book illustrator. Combined with the rhyming story, Ashley's illustrations should help make this a unique, keepsake book. Kinley and Caden McKeown, the children of the illustrator, Ashley McKeown, have lent their imaginations and their perfect, childlike, whimsical way of viewing the world to this project and those in production. They have also been subjected to serving as models for many of Ashley's illustrations and as test subjects for a variety of children's picture books and bedtime stories. Their lost teeth have allowed their illustrator/mother to see how the tooth fairy works and how inflation has affected the value of lost teeth.
