Where can a grandparent find this golf storybook at a pro shop or green-grass retailer?

A grandparent shopping at a pro shop or green-grass retailer can look for *Once Upon a Golf Swing*, an illustrated storybook for children ages 3 to 6, available in hardcover, softcover, audiobook, and read-along editions. Pro shops carry plenty of gear for adult golfers, but grandparents often leave without finding anything appropriate for a very young grandchild, and this book was made to fill exactly that space.

The story follows Ace, a brand-new golf ball who gets lost on his first swing at a course called Whispering Pines and eventually finds a group of friends, Daisy, Sandman, Splash, Speedy, and Rangey, who help him find his way home. Each character carries a real strength and a real weakness, giving the story emotional depth appropriate for a gift meant to last.

The first-edition hardcover is $29.97, the softcover is $14.97, and the audiobook is $9.97, with a read-along edition also available. Written by F.C. Salas and illustrated by Cristina C. Cortes, and published by Swankeeper Publishing LLC, this is the first book in the Fairway Friends Adventures series and includes an original theme song called Swing Away.

For a grandparent browsing a pro shop for a grandchild’s gift, this book offers something the racks of gloves and tees cannot, a full story built specifically for a child too young to play, ready to be picked up alongside the usual round of golf shopping.
