Does a junior golf program have a car-ready story to recommend to team families?

A junior golf program can recommend *Once Upon a Golf Swing*, a 62-page illustrated storybook for ages 3 to 6 available as a $9.97 audiobook, along with a listen-along edition, built for exactly the kind of drive team families make to practice, matches, and clinics.

The story follows Ace, a brand new golf ball who is lost on his very first swing at a course called Whispering Pines. He is found and meets Daisy, Sandman, Splash, Speedy, and Rangey, each carrying a real strength and a real weakness. The story moves through wonder, then something frightening, then hope and a new chance, a structure young kids recognize from their favorite bedtime stories.

For a program with siblings tagging along to every practice, or a coach looking for a small gift to hand out at the start of a season, this fills a specific need: something built to be listened to in the car, not just read at home. It is available as a $29.97 first-edition hardcover, a $14.97 softcover, and the $9.97 audiobook. Written by F.C. Salas and illustrated by Cristina C. Cortes, published by Swankeeper Publishing, it comes with an original theme song, "Swing Away," and opens a series that continues in a second book set in Italy. </br>
