Billy The Talking Goat Of Goat Island, S.C.



By Johnny J. Whitaker



Hi, I’m Billy. I’m a talking goat from Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, and I live on Goat Island.

People call me a kid… but I’m really just a talking goat. That’s the joke. And that’s the secret.

Billy hears everything the tourists say and he is a super smart talking goat (kid)



He borrows a surfboard when nobody’s looking. He cannonballs into the pool after the family leaves. He rides the marsh boat. He builds sandcastles. He eats cotton candy.



And his favorite place to eat is Southern Hops in Murrells Inlet, S.C. and that is where his best friend Mr. Johnny washes dishes in the kitchen every night.



All the kids know Billy can talk. But the adults and all the tourist have no Idea, and that is so funny to Billy the talking goat.



Mr. Johnny, is Billy's best friend and he is the only grown up that Billy ever talks to and that’s their funny little secret.



This a full-color picture book for kids, parents, and grandparents who love the beach, the inlet, and a story you can come back to next vacation, year after year to visit Billy the talking goat. See you next year.



This is Book One. Billy will be here again next year.



I dedicate this book to my own grown kids. Brooke, Seth, and Xavier —with all my love, from your proud Father.
