MAGGIE KEEFE
Maggie Keefe is the author of two silly poetry books for kids, Day Dreaming and One Little Voice. Trouble’s Tale is her first chapter book in The Clever Cat Chronicles Series. The second book in the series is due out this September. She hopes you enjoy reading her silly books as much as she enjoyed writing them!
Maggie resides in the northeast kingdom of Vermont for half the year, escaping to Sarasota, Florida, when the long, cold Vermont winter sets in. What could be better than spending summer in the mountains and winter by the beach AND writing silly, quirky children’s books?

ONE LITTLE VOICE
July 2022 AVAILABLE NOW
A collection of poems that are funny and fun to read.
What happens when a restaurant owner refuses to serve a clown because of his crazy red hair and floppy clown shoes?
“No Clowns Allowed” shows the importance of speaking up and how one little voice can make a big difference. Other poems in the collection contain lovable characters like the little guy who works hard and becomes a basketball star, the girl who only wants to wear polka dots, one that is tempted by a cupcake, and one that takes ice cream eating to a whole new level. Her ice cream-eating skills are giving me the chills! Join in the fun and do a silly dance when your reading time is done!
Trouble's Tale
I'm Trouble. Well, actually, my name is Trouble, and I’m a cat. Yup, a cat named Trouble. This is my story and the story of the misfits that wander into my life. There's Mischief, a sweet, lovable pup, Bonkers, the trash-talking parrot; and, of course, Sheila, the kindest human I know.
How much room is there in one heart for cats, dogs, parrots, and people?
I guess the more you love, the more your heart stretches; at least, that's what Sheila says.
Join me and my misfit friends on our journey to find the perfect fit, where we discover you don’t have to come from the same litter to be a family.
Storyteller at Heart
Maggie Keefe resides in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, where you learn to make your own fun.
She enjoys swimming with frogs, stargazing, dancing like no one’s looking, eating maple creemies, and writing silly poems.
Maggie released her first book of silly poems earlier this year and had so much fun she decided to do it again. She is a firm believer that our world can use a little more silliness, and is on a mission to provide it.
I LOVE TO READ
I am a local author from Danville, Vermont, spending winters in beautiful Sarasota, Florida, living the dream. I would love to share my silly poems with children in the area. Please let me know if you would like me to read from my books 'Day Dreaming' and'One Little Voice'; the poetry is mainly suited for 4 -8-year-olds but can be enjoyed by children of all ages.
My chapter books are perfect for second and third gradersI
I am also working on a book of silly poems for seniors and enjoy reading to local seniors, hoping to encourage creativity and a sense of purpose in our elders. There is also a picture book in me just waiting to bust out – look for 'Five Different Boo-boos coming soon!
