This MK in West Africa just received some books about art, and immediately started coloring and drawing!

“We got the books and one little girl was so excited!! She has been drawing and drawing and drawing! And asking me to read the books over and over! One day when she become a famous artist, I will have her paint a picture of you!!!
Thank you so much for brightening her day and thinking of her. What a sweet blessing!” – Missionary in West Africa

You can donate to the Missionary Kids, and put a huge smile on their faces! These children need books to inspire and encourage their little hearts!

Picture Book Review: The Awkward Owl

The Awkward Owl
The Awkward Owl by Shawnda Blake

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Adorable children’s book with lovely pictures, about an awkward owl who doesn’t have the confidence to fly well until a little girl shows some love and believes in him! I love the cute artwork and the sweet little story about believing in yourself. It’s really funny too, because the owl goes crashing into things sometimes!

10 Favorite Children’s Authors

Of course, after I filmed this, I thought of about 20 more authors that I ought to have included in my list! And then I started thinking that I ought to have re-ordered them differently with some authors higher or lower on the list. It’s just too hard to choose!

Here are a few authors that also bear mentioning, but didn’t quite make the cut for this list…
Cornelia Funke
D. J. McHale
Brian Jacques
George MacDonald
Noel Streatfeild
Rick Riordan
Joan Aiken
Blue Balliett
Roald Dahl
Frank L. Baum
Suzanne Collins
Madeline L’Engle
M. I. McAllister
