Maverick & Tawny: The Lost Bone is a children’s book written and illustrated by Paul de Hallé. The story is inspired by his own dog, Maverick, and cat, Tawny, whose very different personalities sparked a story about curiosity, courage, and quiet wisdom.

Designed for ages 3–7, the story blends playful adventure with gentle reassurance, encouraging curiosity, imagination, and shared bedtime moments.

With expressive illustrations and a creative drawing page at the back, the book invites children to step into the world of Maverick and Tawny and create their own adventures.
