Barry once had a pet opossum, he named it Henrietta; then he found out she was a he! Henery worked good. He lives on a sailboat down the coast of Louisiana. Barry can tell you it's not as glamorous as it sounds. There is just as much work to be done.
Barry started writing when he had Chew Chew and Chipper Dog. In the animal world, the higher they sit, the more prominent they are. Well, it was sent long before the dog climbed up on my shoulder then the two started to fight. So that is how he came up with the idea to write a book where they are the best of friends.
