Arlo, a brave dog and Julia, a sassy cat, are stray best friends. Dreaming of a forever home, they daily dodge scary Animal Control vans and “Jab” a mean teenage gang who stole their winter hideout (totally unfair right?).
One day, Arlo and Julia step on some gooey substance and BAM! they get awesome superpowers! Teaming up with a wacky crew of hip-hop dancing pigeons, a lock-picking racoon, a mischief-loving iguana, and other too-cool-to-be-true stray animals, they plan to take down Jab and recover their lost shelter. Stakes are high, with winter months starting no one should be left out in the freezing streets.
Things take a turn when Arlo finds out his long-lost owner is now involved with the gang.
What would a loyal dog do? Go back to his owner or stay true to his promise?Find out in this pawsome
adventure!

I am Carolina, a mom and a tech lawyer living in Dubai (UAE), who has always had a passion for stories and helping others.
During the few years I chose to pause my career to be a stay-at-home mom (best decision ever!), I channeled my love for storytelling (and my very very playful inner child…) into writing this book to bring joy to children and deliver positive messages packaged in a fun, uplifting and non-moralizing prose.
As I finished the book and rejoined the workforce, I was compelled to explore this idea:
I imagined a scenario where children just by reading my book could contribute to making a BIG difference in other children’s lives.
How empowering for children to know that they have the power to contribute to positive change.
I decided to give it my best to make this happen!
That is why Arlo and Julia: The Takeover, it’s not meant to be just a source of entertainment (and hopefully inspiration!) but through the donation of 100% of the profits on sales* it is meant to empower and amplify the impact of those individuals and organizations that have made it their mission to make a positive impact in the world.
Let us empower children to save the world by reading!
