Donna Hacker Smith, the pastor at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Champaign, has created several hardcover and smaller softcover flipbooks since 2004.

When Leslie Hammersmith gave her friend Barb Geissler a book, it was a moment filled with tears.

That's because it was a very special, one-of-a-kind keepsake – Hammersmith had created the book herself with the help of a digital camera, her computer and an Apple program by the name of iPhoto. Hammersmith turned digital images of her horse, Zoe, and Geissler's horse, Lili, into a handsome hardcover book, which celebrated the horses' first dressage competition at the Kentucky Horse Park.
