ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — For decades, local radio star Kristy Knight has soothed Tampa Bay with an upbeat attitude and a string of soft hits.

Now, the voice of 105.5 the Dove has a new reason for her loyal fans to love her:

Kristy wrote a children's book, "The Cow Spilled the Milk," a charming story illustrated by the very person to whom she first told it.

Her daughter, Elizabeth Ann.

"I wrote a series of children's books when my daughter was really young, and I always wanted to get them published," says Kristy.

Adds Elizabeth Ann: "All through my childhood she was telling me stories and singing me songs and I didn't know if they were real or made-up!"

Kristy says finally publishing the cute barnyard tale reminded her of a powerful lesson for anybody: "At any age, you can make your dreams come true."

"The Cow Spilled the Milk" is available online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and more.
