How Tara was inspired "I didn’t grow up on a farm or even in the country but I have an early affinity for barns. My dad was a college professor and an avid reader. I have many memories of trips to Baldwin’s Book Barn – a used bookstore housed in the most amazing dairy barn near our home in West Chester, PA. Built in 1822 this 5 story barn had so many nooks and crannies, odd staircases and interesting doors to explore!"
