The Littlest Shepherd is making her way out into the world from our mountainside farm in Vermont! As of today, the little book has landed in 22 states as well as England and Australia! I’m so excited to see my picture book finally landing in little hands.
The book has also traveled to two different sheep and wool festivals this fall where she quickly became a favorite in our booth. At the Vermont Sheep and Wool Festival I had the opportunity to share the story with a group of children and their parents. It was magical to see children interacting with my story for the first time.
Book Reviews
The greatest testament to how well a book connects with others is through the reviews. Over the past couple of months I have received many kind messages about my book. It seems The Littlest Shepherd and Ramona the lamb have found their way into quite a few hearts.🩷🩷 Below are a few things people are saying about the book.
