Peacock Books & Wildlife Art is honored to present the gorgeous, detailed wood carvings by Richard Southard, owner of Impressions in Wood. The beautiful details in his art include hand carved eyes, finely detailed feathers on the wings of geese, chickadees, and his breathtaking hummingbirds in flight, feeding, or flying — he captures their spirit and joy of life of God’s creatures.
One must sit in the wild for hours, and likely, on many trips to observe what Richard captures in the bird behavior exhibited in his exquisite wood carvings.
Stop by and see for yourself the beauty of Richard’s carved wildlife scenes, little moments of life, captured and preserved for display in any room you would like to add a breathe of new flight, either as a hanging ornament or mounted on carved grapevine, aromatic cedar base.

We are now carrying Anna Marie Jaworski’s book, MY BROTHER NEEDS AN OPERATION
Anna Marie Jaworski Baby Hearts Press Book Review by Lisa Loucks Christenson Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome My Brother Needs An Operation sold by Peacock Books
Book Review: MY BROTHER NEEDS AN OPERATION written by Anna Marie Jaworski and Illustrated by Linda Bell
Told from the heart of a mom whose son was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.
This is a book the author wished was available when her son was born to help her understand more about Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome and help her older son understand the changes in their new family.
Anna Marie Jaworski chronicles the challenging highs and lows that divides her and her husband to take care of their children, a life lived between home and hospitals so they may find help for her son who needs life-saving surgeries. This beautifully written story is a story for finding a way to comfort their son who is now living a life, much different than he expected when his baby brother was born.
