The Frenchies Rebellion
Building Character, One Story at a Time
Welcome to VRB Books!
Hello and welcome! I'm Vanessa Richardson Bagby-educator, children's author, and advocate for kindness, acceptance, and character development.
For 25 years, I had the privilege of helping students learn, grow, and believe in themselves. Today, I continue that mission through stories that encourage empathy, inclusion, and thoughtful decision-making.
The Frenchies Rebellion is more than a children's book. It is a character-building story that opens the door to conversations about kindness, empathy, inclusion, and accepting others. My hope is to inspire children to choose compassion over bullying and discover that there is always room for one more friend, family member and classmate.
Whether you're a parent, teacher, librarian, counselor, or young reader, thank you for visiting VRB Books. I hope these stories bring smiles, spark meaningful conversations, and leave a lasting impact on every child who reads them.
Three Frenchies. One Home, Zero plans for Sharing.
Life was perfect for Quavo, Aiko, and Nikko until he
arrived.
A clumsy little Cane Corso named Onyx.
He drooled. He played. He stole the spotlight!
The Frenchies had no choice...
It was time for a rebellion.
From missing socks to top-secret "Operation
Return-to-Sender," these clever pups will stop at
nothing to take back their throne until they learn that
maybe, just maybe, there's enough love (and belly rubs)
to go around.
A heartwarming and hilarious story about friendship,
family, and finding room for one more wagging tail.
TESTIMONIALS

INSPIRATIONAL!
A Great Inspirational Book!!
This book is truly an inspiration to all readers, men or women. Vanessa is a strong, courageous woman who's love for her son and God has no limits. She had me in touch with all my emotions. I re-read this book for emotional support when I found myself in the same situation a few months after with my nephew's motorcycle accident.
A must read for all families who are dealing with tragedy in their lives.

I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE READS!!
I must say when I received this book, I thought it was just another one of those reads, but I was truly amazed at the raw emotions this book was able to bring to my life. I cried, laughed and prayed with this family. I couldn't put this book down, truly amazing...thank you, Vanessa Richardson Bagby, You have given African Americans everywhere something worthwhile to read.

MUST READ!
What a wonderful read! Ms. Bagby's book is touching in so many ways. By the end of the book, you will strive for stronger relationships with your family, friends, and all your loved ones. In addition, you will want to build and/or renew your faith in God. I sincerely recommend purchasing "Shattered In A Split Second." The suspense will have you steadily reading the book, yearning to find out what will happen next. This novel shows you that even through tragedy comes light. It changed my life in numerous ways..it can and will do the same for you.
