Where in the World is Latte?

February 2024

Window to The Bay #40

Happy Friday! Would you like to join me in a game of “where in the world is Latte?” As Latte the stuffed animal Dalmatian dog has accompanied my family and me on many trips around the world for several years, I am accustomed to being the silly lady holding up a stuffed animal in the pictures. However, I’m still pinching myself at the dream come true that Latte is quite literally around the world as I type this message thanks to the modern publishing marvel of global printing and distribution. If you have already purchased a copy of Latte’s Broadway Boogie Woogie, THANK YOU! I’m so grateful to the family and friends of Laura Ann Studio who have supported the publishing journey and launch of the Latte & The Goldmatians series. The release day Sunday Story Time at the New-York Historical Society was great fun. It’s been such a delight to finally have Latte out in the world. If you’d still like to purchase a copy, here are some of my favorite places where you may shop online or in person. If you do happen to spot Latte’s Broadway Boogie Woogie on the shelves at any of these or other bricks and mortar stores, please send or a post a photo of Latte in the wild - I’d be very happy to see it!
