About the Christian Children’s Books

WhiteSpark Publishing is thrilled to bring readers young and old two delightful stories all about color!

 Our Thoughts:

We love to read here in our house and finding Christian Children’s Books is always a welcome thing.  It is sometimes hard to find good children’s books though.  And finding Christian Children’s Books can be almost impossible if you don’t know where to look.  We believe that exposing Children to God’s love from a very young age is the way to go!

That all being said these are cute books!  Even if you’re not serious about reading Christian children’s books to your kids you’re going to love these.  The illustrations are so cute and colorful.  My kids are in love with them and will happily sit to have them read time and time again.  

We have studied rainbows several times in our homeschool and love how beautiful they are and of course the reason for the first rainbow.  When God gave Noah that first rainbow I can’t even imagine what the people thought.  How gorgeous and what a wonderful promise!

This is a great way to interest your children in colors and learning the colors of the rainbow specifically.  We have a rhyme that I teach my kids to help them remember how the colors go but this is so much more fun!  Definitely get yourself a copy.  I would also recommend them for the nursery of churches.  And it would be great to get some good Christian children’s books like these into some waiting rooms.  It’s always nice to have something besides magazines or soap operas for your children to view when you’re waiting at the doctor or dentist.  

I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from Celebrate Lit. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.  I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.  All opinions expressed are my own.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the FTC regulations. 

Isaac’s Ice Cream Tree

When God Made Color

About the Authors

Why children’s books? After all, I teach young teens. Well, my reasons:

1. I love art, and reading children’s books is like looking at an artist’s showcase of creativity!
   * Shout out to my amazing illustrator, Rachael Koppendrayer!
2. I love to dream up the impossible, and you can make anything happen in a children’s book!
3. I love togetherness and nothing brings a family together like a good book.

As I read picture books with my kiddos, the teacher in me wanted to instruct too. I created a blog (www.kidsbookfriends.com) so teachers, librarians, and parents could have little lessons to help them “make friends” with the characters in the stories I featured. Surrounded by such inspiration from these books and my kiddos, I started writing my own manuscripts when my kids were all under age five, mainly sketches of thoughts until I had segments of time where I could construct stories.

After several years of attending SCBWI conferences; connecting with writers; creating manuscripts & editing and revising, editing and revising (you see a pattern?!); and submitting them to publishers, Isaac’s Ice Cream Tree was accepted for publication and was released January 15, 2019, by Whitefire Publishing! (It’s a process!!!)

The message embedded in this colorful, magical story expresses a very real part of my heart as it’s our family motto: “Always remember to look for the rainbow.” My kids and I both literally and figuratively practice this principle, rushing out after every rain to see if the sky is painted with a bow as well as trying to find the good that comes through the storms of life.

Through my journey, I’ve experienced much loss through moving many times, caring for my mother during her dying days, and losing my husband through a divorce. Yet in it all, God redeems and uses each pain and joy like brush strokes on a canvass, reminding us of His unfailing promises while creating a masterpiece.

Creativity, imagination, inspiration . . . make magical moments.

Gather together. Dream the impossible. Embrace the colors. . . as I introduce you to a new friend, Isaac! Excited to share this story with you. . . and my next one . . . and the one after that. . . until we have many new kindred spirits… .together.

A child asks, “Who am I?”
Creation Vs. Evolution – The big battle. Many public schools are presenting Evolution as fact and not theory. They leave no room for the concept of Creation. Our little ones are not creatures descended from animals, they are Children of God, created in His image. This is our identity and our children’s Identity and it makes all the difference in how we see ourselves, how we see others and how we engage in the world.

Our identity is made clear in Genesis, the first book of the Bible.

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground. So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them, male and female he created them.” Genesis 1:26-27 NIV.

As Christian parents and grandparents, we are charged with teaching, encouraging and bringing forth our family line for the LORD. The new picture book When God Made Color, with its awe-inspiring illustrations, is about our true identity and about the joyful, loving God who created us and the whole universe – a universe that is still expanding – Isn’t He just amazing?
