Dare to dream, even if you’re a mere ant!
My friend & former Iraq contracting comrade-in-arms John Dovey and wife wife Shirene — in turn inspired by their darling daughter Leah — have put together an absolutely delightful children’s book. It’s about a courageous little ant who dares to not only dream but actually pursue those dreams…which is more than can be said for all too many people in this world.
