Night Night, Farm by Amy Parker Review & Giveaway

About the book: Night Night, Farm
Author: Amy Parker
Illustrated By: Virginia Allyn

Moo moo, cows!
Baa baa, sheep!
When the sun sinks low down on the farm, the animals are all tuckered out from the day’s adventures. Join these adorable farm animals in pajamas as they say night night to the farm, to their mommies and daddies, and to God.
Your little ones will sleep until the rooster crows knowing that the God who made them loves them too.
Night night, farm!

About the author:
Amy Parker’s children’s books have sold more than 800,000 copies including two Christian Retailing’s Best award-winning books and the bestselling A Night Night Prayer. She lives outside Nashville with her husband and two children.

Review:
Night Night, Farm is a delightful children's board book that is perfect for a nap or bedtime story.  My son already owned A Night Night Prayer by Amy Parker and it has been a favorite to read at night.  This addition is no different.  The first thing I love is that it is sturdy with a puffy cover.  The illustrations are colorful and fun.  The book goes through different animals on the farm getting ready for bed.  My kids love seeing the animals and making their sounds.  I'm really loving reading it with my baby girl because she hasn't learned the animals or sounds yet (Educational is always a plus! The story also has rhyme, which is great for phonological awareness).  The book ends saying "Night Night" to God who made the animals and you!  :)  I would definitely recommend this book for any younger child.  I received this book free to review from FlyBy Promotions.

A Love Letter from God by P.K. Hallinan Review & Giveaway

About the book: A Love Letter from God
Author P.K. Hallinan
Illustrator: Laura Watson

In this story, the author supposes what God might say in a personal letter written to a child. The unconditional and unlimited nature of God's love is revealed through simple and lyrical language. Rich and textured illustrations, along with heart-shaped die-cuts, will make this uplifting book a family favorite. It is a great message for little ones on Valentine’s Day, or for everyday inspiration. Love Letter from God will remind children of God’s eternal love and how He demonstrates that love through everyday miracles and by the wonder of His presence. Thanks to the colorful and touching illustrations of Laura Watson, children will also learn how to appreciate their own individuality and how to use their unique gifts to be a blessing to others.
About the author: 
P. K. Hallinan has been creating books for children since his wife first asked him to write for their two boys more than 30 years ago. Today Hallinan writes uplifting stories about holidays, relationships, and life values. “When I started this project, I felt that God told me to ‘Just let children know how much I love them.’ So I asked Him to speak the words Himself, through my heart, and I would put them to paper. And I believe He did this. This book’s message reinforces the presence of God in a child’s life by showing how God manifests Himself at every moment of every day,” said Hallinan.

Review:
A Love Letter from God is a wonderful book with a great message for children.  Every child should know that they are precious and loved by our Heavenly Father.  Through rhymes and colorful illustrations, P.K. Hallinan displays God's love in a letter.  My son loved flipping through the book and putting his fingers in the cut-outs.  The book is hard cover and the pages are more sturdy than regular paper book pages.  My favorite part of the book besides the message is the illustrations.  The colors are so bright and engaging!  I also love how some of the words are bigger than other and in different styles.  It's a simply stunning child's book that would be a great Valentine's gift.
