“Candy Moon” is a heartfelt and endearing 975 word picturebook. Eight year old Kevin is counting on getting all the items on his Christmas list. When he is introduced to a family that has lost everything after a flood, he realizes the true meaning of Christmas and discovers the joy of giving. His new friends discover the reason for the season. This timeless message will encourage children to share during the holidays and throughout the year. Parents may also use this story as a tool and opportunity to teach their children through acts of kindness that help to instill virtues.

Being it is written with a seeker friendly quality, I can definitely see "Candy Moon” reaching every Christian market as well as many others.

"Cell Phone Sally" is a 570 word picturebook. Eight year old Peggy prepares her pig, Sally, for competition. After Sally consumes a cell phone, she surprises everyone with her new hilarious talent that not even the judges expected. A fun story that brings belly laughs with every reading.
