Doodles the American Hero book cover by Cynthia L. Clack

The Doodles series is one of Cynthia Clack's most beloved creations: a collection of children's books starring a charming teacup poodle whose real-life antics inspired a series of values-based adventures.

The story originated on a rainy afternoon when Cynthia and her nephew, James, decided to write stories together. Cynthia drew inspiration from a friend's dog named 'Dude', whom her friend Jo Lynn Embrey was determined would look like an 'American' poodle rather than the traditional 'goofy, French' haircut.

Across five volumes — three published and two in development — the series follows a little girl named Ashley and her teacup poodle Doodles through adventures that explore responsibility, inclusion, heroism, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy.
