SUMMARY: This week, Natalie Guess from Hancock County launched her first children's book, “The Biggest, the Oldest, the Strongest…All Eat Plants.” It features characters that educate children on the benefits of consuming plants to grow strong, inspired by plant-eating animals like elephants and gorillas. To her surprise, the book became a top seller on Amazon's hot new releases. Guess aims to teach kids about the versatility and nutritional values of plants, beans, and nuts, suggesting they can be more beneficial than animal proteins. Her book is available at Mockingbird Café, Bay Life Gifts, and Book Century Hall.
