Little Lucy, Big Race

Written by Matt Roloff, the star of TLC's hit reality show "Little People, Big World," Little Lucy, Big Race shares that we all have potential and are special in our own little way.

In 2016, Roloff underwent major spinal surgery. During his recovery in the hospital, he was inspired to write a children's book about hope and overcoming adversity. With time on his hands and after a great deal of personal reflection, Roloff was reminded of his childhood spent in hospitals and how important faith, encouragement, positivity, and hope were to him at that time. He was further inspired by the exciting news that he would soon become a grandfather. Roloff's little dog, Lucy, was the perfect character to bring his story to life.

Little Lucy, Big Race is based on Lucy, Matt's energetic, fun-loving dog who was adopted and born the smallest of her litter. True to the story, Lucy started off shy and has since come out of her shell loving the freedom of wide open spaces. Despite her small size, little Lucy continues to be the fastest critter on the farm. Her story will inspire readers of all ages!

This book is dedicated to Roloff's first grandson, Jackson.
