24-Hour Donkey, a new book by Elayne B. Barrios, has been released by RoseDog Books.

24-Hour Donkey is about a little girl named Jenny and her Grandpa. Every morning when she wakes up, she wants a cup of coffee. Grandpa lets her have a sip, but she drinks one too many. Jenny soon discovers Grandpa's tale about little girls who drink too much coffee-they turn into 24-hour donkeys. She also discovers she has to accept who she is and who her true friends really are. Read this funny and heartwarming story about Jenny the donkey girl.

Elayne B. Barrios was born on January 13, 1979, in Tulare, California. She now resides in Arizona with her husband, Carlos, and her children, Kayla, Jonathan, Ezra, and Andrew. Her inspiration to write has been a lifelong dream, ever since she was a little girl.

Elayne's grandpa would always tell stories that left her puzzled and would make her laugh. She started writing stories for her children. This is her first book for the public. Elayne hopes to inspire children and adults to write stories about tales from their family so that they live forever.
