Mary Ann Short 
Tiny 

Nature is the most awesome of teachers, is she not? Tiny is a down-home heartwarming true story about a orphaned gosling by Mary Ann Short that will school the old and young on the handsome Canada geese that share our wetlands, fields, and skies.

Only because of Mary Ann’s own childhood experience of raising geese was she was able to take on the challenge of this little lone survivor and what then happens will delight and surprise.

Youll never look at geese the same after you read her tale of being tinyso completely hopelessly lost, then miraculously found!

I just love living in the country! Gilded sunrises & sunsets,
tiny hummingbirds or big bucks under my apple trees
on a foggy morning, I live in amazement at the creativity
that surrounds us, all made by our Creator for us to enjoy!

As a lifelong artist, I have worked in a wide variety of projects
in many mediums. As a lifelong nature lover, I was enchanted
by Mary Ann’s story about Tiny & enjoyed conceptualizing
his adventure in colored pencil. www.kcsfolio.com
