Huge thanks to the Readers' Favorite site for their Five Star review of Baby Moo's Great Escape!

An excerpt from the review:

"The first word that came to my mind after reaching the end of this book: OUTSTANDING! Julie Flanders not only has the knack of telling a wonderful fable, teaching many lessons in the process about jealousy, standing up for and defending your friends and helping those in need, but also has an artistic flair which helped bring the story to life beautifully."

I am so excited to announce that my debut children's book will be published this fall by Native Ink Press. I could not be more thrilled by this opportunity!

The book is called Baby Moo's Great Escape and features the animals of the wonderful Sunrise Sanctuary in Marysville, Ohio. The book will be for young readers, and I am working with a wonderful illustrator to bring Baby Moo and the rest of the animals to life.

Baby Moo is a real resident of Sunrise, and he is such a handsome guy that he has superstar written all over him. Don't you agree?

I can't wait to share more about the book as we move closer to its publication. Stay tuned!
