Morgan Macaranas grew up in a small town in the foothills of North Carolina where she enjoyed spending time with her grandparents and great-grandparents on their farm, which has been in her family for over one hundred years. Now, she is a mother of two, and her children’s love of adventures inspired her to write Down in the Pasture, an interactive story that celebrates the outdoors and all of God’s creation. Morgan’s debut children’s book shows that there’s so much to enjoy in nature, even in one’s own backyard, as it provides countless opportunities for discovery and education.
