Last time she was seen was in a barn in Dime Box, Texas. She's funny, adventurous, and she loves selfies, festivals, and smiles! Where did she go? How did she get there? Who does she meet along the way? If you find her in your town, contact P. G. Shriver!
Excerpt
There was an old saddle
just sittin' in the barn.
Thick dust covered her seat
when she spun me this yarn
about how she'd traveled
through the states of this land,

the travelin' saddle.
This here’s her new story
without all the prattle.
