Brenda Kay Ledford Publishes Children's Picture Book

 

Brenda Kay Ledford's new children's picture book, The Singing Convention, was published by Catch the Spirit of Appalachia, Inc. in April, 2021.

This is a wonderful true story of a family of eight children set in the early century.  It is a story of how one child feels about being called to do most of the work and the lesson he learns.  This book also introduces readers to shape-note singing.  The beautiful illustrations by Doreyl Ammons Cain capture the culture of the Blue Ridge Mountains with grace.

Ledford's book is available at:  Chinquapins, Hayesville, NC; Shelton House Museum, Waynesville, NC, and www.CSAbooks.com.
