The Baker's Patio Series
The Sultan
A visitor to the patio teaches us that we all need to take time to smell the roses.
Life goes by fast. But when you are naturally slow, you have extra time to see the world around you and the beauty that it presents. A visitor to the Bakers’ Patio, the Sultan of Slugs, enjoys his walk to meet the Queen of the ant colony. But his escort, the Queen’s son, is in too big of a hurry to notice God’s wonders.
