My heartfelt thanks to the following —

First and foremost, thanks to my cousin, Rick Lancaster, for writing the story God gave him.

A huge thank you to my Aunt Dee and Uncle Jerry Lancaster for asking me to work on Rick’s story and prepare it for publication.

My sincere gratitude to Crystal Bowman for her wisdom, her counsel, and her gracious endorsement.

Cheri Cowell and her entire team at EABooks for their outstanding support in publishing Manny the Lamb. Each team member with whom I worked was not only professional, but also kind.

Dave O’Connell, the very best illustrator Manny could have ever had. Dave, you made Manny the Lamb come alive.

Bob Ousnamer, a terrific Conversion Specialist/Cover Designer. Your hard work and attention to detail are most appreciated.

My Word Weavers critique group, especially Jennifer Odom, Doris Hoover, Marian Rizzo, and Mary Busha.

Special thanks to my loving husband, Chuck, whose counsel, support, and encouragement helped Manny the Lamb become a reality.

My utmost thanks to the Good Lord, who guided me throughout this entire process!
