Silly Dog and a Cat

Larry Caylor served forty years as a pastor in the Holston Conference of the United Methodist Church in Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, where he pastored mostly rural and small-town churches. As a committed servant, he receives his greatest joy from telling and writing stories to and for children of all ages. Through his stories, Caylor seeks to instill confidence and a positive self-image in children, in the hope that as they grow older, they will make their communities stronger and healthier. Concerned about the state of public education, he offers one suggestion: a good teacher must strive to be a good storyteller.
