The Collingwood Press Releases "A Day in the Life of Root Beer (The Dachshund)" by Mark Eggers

FORT WORTH, TX, October 21, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Collingwood Press has released "A Day in the Life of Root Beer (The Dachshund)," a children's picture book written by Mark Eggers. The book is available now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

The book follows Root Beer, a dachshund, through a single day at home with Mommy and Daddy. It begins with Root Beer waking in his crate to the smell of coffee and ends with him asleep in it again. In between, he eats breakfast, plays tug-of-war with his fox toy, rides to the park, answers a squirrel, stops for ice cream, and settles on the couch between Mommy and Daddy for the evening.

The story stays with the small routines of an ordinary day: banana slices and blueberries with breakfast, a ball nudged under the couch followed by barking until it is fished back out, Daddy asking him to step back from the dishwasher, and 3 circles in his favorite spot before he curls up against Dad's leg.

The book is fully illustrated in color. Each spread moves to a new part of the day, from the kitchen and living room to the park, the ice cream shop, and the house at night.

Root Beer is Eggers's own dog. Eggers and his wife, Kathy, did not have a dog until they were 67. Root Beer, named for his coat color, has been with them for about 5 years. His title page lists a few of his other names, including Ninja Wiener, Rooty Beer, RB, Harry Houweenie, and Rootie Tootie. The book is dedicated to Eggers's entire family, "who all have an opinion about Root Beer."

Eggers and Kathy have 4 children, 10 grandchildren, and 3 great-grandchildren.
