When You Go Night Calving
Available NOW!
Some of the biggest lessons come on the coldest nights.
Step into a snowy night and discover the quiet magic of ranch life in When You Go Night Calving. Wrapped in warm coats and guided by the glow of the old truck's headlights, a young girl joins her father on an unforgettable journey through the meadows to check on newborn calves.
When they find one alone in the cold, the night becomes something more — a lesson in compassion, courage, and the difference even the smallest among us can make.
Brought to life through breathtaking original watercolor art, this gentle, timeless story celebrates family, kindness, and the special wonder of being little.
A tender bedtime story, perfect for young ranch hands and city kids alike.

Jayme’s first children’s picture book is inspired by a real-life rescue of an orphaned calf, her ensuing love affair with the big-eyed, big-eared bovine, and the happily ever after that continues to play out on the ranch.
