Allen, TX, December 16, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Fulton Books author Thomas D. Yant, a loving husband, father, and grandfather, as well as a US Navy Seabee veteran who served in Vietnam and Australia, has completed his most recent book, “A Tale of Our Silent Menagerie”: a captivating tale that invites readers to explore the many inanimate animals, from ceramic to stuffed, the author and his wife call their “pets.”

Author Thomas D. Yant is a native of Ponca City, Oklahoma, and studied at the College of Emporia in Kansas, Oklahoma State School of Technical Training, and Oklahoma State University.

“At our house, we no longer have real live pets to care for and keep us company, but we discovered that we have a house full of pets,” writes Yant. “It’s just that they have been so lazy and quiet that we had quite forgotten about them even though they were all around us. Although they are made of ceramic and cloth, it is fun to look at them and reminisce about how we came to be their family. Come inside and let me introduce you to our silent menagerie.”

Published by Fulton Books, Thomas D. Yant’s book will capture the hearts and imaginations of readers as they follow along on this wonderful journey through the author’s menagerie, reminding them of the special bond one can share with their animals, even if they simply sit on shelves silently.
