In her latest novel, Cinnamon: a dairy cow’s (and her farmer’s) path to freedom, author Janet Mason tells a moving tale through the eyes of Cinnamon, a wise, witty and unexpectedly vocal dairy cow. Cinnamon forges an unlikely friendship with Jody, the farmer that owns her, sparking a journey of mutual transformation. When Cinnamon’s friend Spice falls ill, Jody’s compassion awakens, ultimately leading her to abandon animal products and reimagine her farm as a sanctuary instead of a place of production.

With poignant humor and philosophical insight, Mason reveals the complex emotional lives of animals and the moral awakening of a conflicted farmer. As Jody begins to heal physically and emotionally, she sees a path forward—not just for herself, but for Cinnamon, Spice and the entire herd.

Praised by The Prairies Book Review, Literary Titan and author Maria Fama, Cinnamon is a heartfelt exploration of empathy, change and what it means to live with compassion. Published by Adelaide Books in 2024 and featured at this year’s Frankfurt Book Fair, Cinnamon invites readers to consider the possibility of a gentler world—one cow’s story at a time.
