Carmen Deedy joins us to showcase her exciting, colorful new book, 14 Cows for America. Wonderfully illustrated by Thomas Gonzalez -- who like Deedy is a native Cuban now living near Atlanta -- it is an inspiring, delightful story produced in collaboration with Wilson Kimeli Naiyomah.  It begins in 2002 in a far-flung village in western Kenya where hundreds of the Masai people have gathered to make a most unusual, heartfelt gift to the American people in the tragic wake of the September 11 attacks. Don't miss this memorable appearance by Deedy.
