With the new release of Stedman Carr, DVM’s first novel, Maria, Me, and Animals, Bouncing Ball Books, Inc. boasts two published titles from this intelligent and professional author.
Maria, Me, and Animals is a novel following a young boy’s life from rural Cajun country to an established and successful veterinary practice in metropolitan Tampa Bay. Carr’s novel is more than a coming of age story as he weaves a murder into the plot. He crosses the lines of traditional genres that include historical fiction, mystery-crime, romance, and philosophy. His writing style is definitely adult and will attract both men and women readers.
Carr’s writing style is unique in that his words stimulate thought into the human endeavor. For his main character, J. D’ Veaux, the reality of introspection expresses itself in D’ Veaux’s consistent love of life and sincere living as he matures, experiences loses and gains, death and joy, and murder!
A peak into the culture of Cajun country and into the metropolitan high life of Tampa Bay as the plot unfolds offers the reader insight and a touchstone for those with like experiences. Stedman Carr’s words touch the heart and mind.
As President of the Parent Teacher Association at San Jose Elementary for many years, the Skipper of the Sea Scouts – a branch of the Boy Scouts of America, and the founder of the Veterinary Medical Technician program in the State of Florida, Dr. Carr has shown leadership and energy towards loving animals and helping others for over fifty years in his Tampa Bay community.
