Ears to Hear

Join Doctor Zippy, the encouraging and uplifting horse, as he interacts with his animal patients in the second book of the Just Keep Zippin' series, "Ears to Hear." Doc Zippy sees Boom Boom, an elephant who needs hearing aids. Zippy finds ways to help Boom Boom get over his fears of being different in school. Zippy also helps Boom Boom picture the new world of confidence and activities that he'll be able to enjoy with his new ears. Author Kriss includes personal examples from her own lifelong profound hearing loss. Illustrator daughter Angel (and human hearing aid with ironically supersonic hearing of her own) captures imagery and concepts from real family & school situations.

Zippy's insights and "Hoovescriptions" guide his patients through common worries and challenges faced by young children. New ways of thinking, encouragement, and solutions empower each patient in the series to conquer the challenges, and to celebrate the positive impacts they can have on others.

The Just Keep Zippin' (Just Keep Zipping) series is filled with heartwarming humor and illustrations by mother-daughter duo Kriss and Angel King. Although a fire devastated their home in 2020, this series embodies their reliance on faith, positivity, love, and a desire to Just Keep Zippin'! The books are also a tribute to the REAL-LIFE Zippy horse. This beloved therapy horse inspired many with his velvety Zmooches, willing attitudes, and resilience.
