Everything And Nothing

Grow Where You're Planted

 

Charlie the Peanut is a children's book created by two Mississippians, Lexington couple Alyssa and Keith Killebrew. Batesville native, Chris Jenkins, illustrated the book. In the story, Charlie the Peanut is carried away by a bluebird and dropped in a cotton field and must find his way home. The message of the book is "grow where you're planted."

The self-published book can be found in about 20 Mississippi locations and is also available online at http://charliethepeanut.com. So far they have sold 1,000 copies.

Crooked Little House

Built with the walls tilted slightly outward, these custom playhouses include doors with handles, cedar shingle roofs, and slanted windows on the walls. Plus, you can add a front porch; pick a color (like red barn, Tigger orange, and garden green); and even choose a theme such as a schoolhouse, castle, or restaurant.

The eight-foot-tall Kids Crooked House buildings, constructed in Windham, Maine, are big enough to host top-secret club meetings, tea parties for teddy bears, and other no-adults-allowed activities.
