Press Release
What Speedo Thinks
Branson, MO – April 26, 2025 — Bestselling author and leadership expert Nancy Parsons brings her storytelling talents to a younger audience with her heartfelt new children’s book, What Speedo Thinks, available May 1st. This charming, funny, and uplifting tale is told through the eyes of Speedo, Nancy’s adventurous and lovable American Water Spaniel.
Part memoir, part imagination, What Speedo Thinks captures the quirky thoughts, loyal heart, and spirited personality of a dog who left paw prints on the hearts of everyone he met. Written for children ages 8 and up—and for families who know the deep love of a pet—this story is both entertaining and comforting, especially for those navigating the loss of a furry companion.
“Speedo was funny, mischievous, loving, and full of wisdom in his own way,” said Parsons. “When he passed in 2019, I wrote a long journal entry to process the grief. Years later, I re-read it and knew I had to share his story—with Speedo telling it himself.”
The story touches on themes of family, resilience, friendship, and the unspoken bond between pets and their people. With vibrant illustrations and humorous moments woven throughout, What Speedo Thinks will have readers laughing, tearing up, and smiling all at once.
Parsons, known globally for her award-winning work in executive coaching and leadership development, shows her softer side in this tender tribute. She proves that great storytelling and meaningful life lessons aren’t limited to the boardroom—and that sometimes, our greatest teachers have four legs and a wagging tail.
