Looking for a great gift idea for the young one in your life? Check out author Kate B. Jerome’s new interactive children’s books series Lucky to Live in… which is recommended as a “give your personal best” selection in Parents Magazine’s 2017 Holiday Gift Guide. Designed for children ages 4 to 7, Lucky to Live in Alabama is a cross between a story book and a memory book. Read aloud rhymes and fill in the blank prompts are designed to capture a child’s story- customized to where they live. The book’s well illustrated spreads encourage conversation about local cuisine like fried green tomatoes and interesting places to visit like the McWane Center and the U.S. Space and Rock Center. Additional spreads cover everything from music appreciation and nature to favorite celebrations and goals. Find Lucky to Live in Alabama ($16.99) at Sanctuary Books & Gifts in Alabaster, and for a full list of books in the state series visit www.arcadiapublishing.com. †
