Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Rita Reed is the Amazon Bestseller and award-winning author of DOGFISH Saves the Ocean, DOGFISH Stands Up to Bullying, and DOGFISH, Just be YOU!. Through her colorful and engaging children’s picture book series, Dogfish Tales, she spreads positivity, inclusiveness, love, and acceptance of all.

Growing up, Rita had a love for the ocean and the natural world. She would never miss an episode of The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau, a series about marine exploration and conservation. But her real inspiration was her father, who was an avid scuba diver and would tell magnificent stories of his deep-sea adventures. Tales of his encounters with eels, giant octopus, whales, sharks, and many other sea creatures would captivate her, inspiring a connection to the ocean that would never fade.

Rita is passionate about children’s picture books. As a parent she cherished time spent reading to her own children, connecting with them through the magic of books. She discovered that reading together could start conversations about important issues. Years later, she dreamt of her character Dogfish, and was inspired to write meaningful and empowering stories for children.

With a strong heart for philanthropy, Rita believes in access to books for everyone. She partners with the non-profit organization, Imagination Storybooks, where Dogfish Tales will be available in video and audiobooks for blind, deaf and neurodiverse children.

Rita is a member of SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators), CIPA (Colorado Independent Publishers Association), ALLI (The Alliance of Independent Authors), and Goodreads. Rita resides in Southern California, where she studied art, architecture, and interior design. She enjoys spending time with her family and two silly, spoiled cats.

“I feel Dogfish in my heart. He’s the vulnerable, innocent child in all of us.”

The Dogfish Tales series is available at: www.DogfishTales.com Amazon and Barnes and Noble

Amazing book !
5 out of 5 stars
Amazing book !
I got *"Dogfish Saves the Ocean"* for my nephew because I want him to learn the importance of taking care of our environment, especially the ocean. He has been absolutely obsessed with this book! It's not only fun and engaging for kids but also very educational. The story does a great job of teaching about the dangers of throwing trash in the ocean and how we can all play a part in protecting marine life. The illustrations are vibrant and captivating, making it a joy to read together. He loved it so much that I ended up getting the entire collection for him! It's the perfect mix of education and entertainment. Highly recommend for any child interested in learning about our planet!
Thank you for your feedback

    Our entire world is colorful and beautiful. Rita and the illustrator portray that. Although many things like trash in the ocean, or bullying, are not always rainbows and sunshine, it can be dealt with on a positive note. Encourage others to change just something little in their day, and the animals will smile back at you too. They matter along with humans. We help each other, why not help creatures big and small too.
    Animals come together in this book, people should too.
    Dogfish is a wonderful story. Please read and learn something new each time that you do.
    Thank you for the read and keep on reading and writing!

    I would recommend this book for new, beginning readers. With both sentences I've wrote these caused me to feel it needed to be chalked down to a five star review rating. Beautiful work Rita.

    It’s never too early to teach our children about responsibilities of life and one of the very important lessons of littering which translates to recycling! Mrs. Reed’s book not only entertains children but teaches them the importance of taking care of our planet by simply acts of responsibility! The illustrations are colorful and truly captured the interest of my grandchildren!
    A perfect gift for Christmas! You can never start to early to tach a child to take interest in good reads!
    Two thumbs up!

    This is a beautiful kids story with a clear moral of the story and beautiful and fun illustration! It was a fast read for the kids, and they took turn asking questions and pointing to the illustration. The animals are fun and cheerful despite disaster befalling on them. I highly recommend this book especially as a teaching children book for the moral and reasons for recycling.

    Reviewed in Spain on January 5, 2024
    I have borrowed this book thanks to my Kindle Unlimited subscription and read it on the Kindle app on my tablet.

    Beautifully illustrated book with a great message. The author teaches kids with a lovely story that we must keep the sea clean with the four R's: recycle, reuse, reduce, and reinvent. A perfect book to read with kids aged 2 to 6.
