Featured Book
Sundays on Southland
Sundays on Southland is a dog’s tale. It is narrated by Daisy, an absolutely awesome Labradoodle! After introducing herself and her favorite toys, she takes the reader on a Sunday morning stroll to the local farmers market to witness the magic that appears there each and every Sunday from April through October. While this particular magic occurs on the Southland corridor in Lexington, Kentucky, the reader will easily envision it as their own hometown farmers’ market. Children of all ages, parents of all ages, dog owners, dog lovers, and farmers’ market customers will all delight in this Sunday morning visit to the farmers’ market!
