Feel Love

Today 12 June 2018 Cedar Fort, Inc. released the newest edition of THE HOLY GHOST IS LIKE A BLANKET with updated illustrations by Corey Egbert.

Get your copy of Annalisa Hall’s THE HOLY GHOST IS LIKE A BLANKET (Boy Version) here 

I love when siblings grow up and follow in the footsteps of their older sister. This younger brother has his own little story of how the Holy Spirit is special to him.

Your children don’t see the Holy Ghost, but that doesn’t mean they can’t feel His presence. With heart-warming illustrations, The Holy Ghost Is Like a Blanket depicts characteristics of the Holy Ghost by comparing them to objects children remember and relate to. These meaningful analogies will help your little ones recognize the Holy Ghost as a real influence in their lives.

If you’d be interested in reviewing a copy, please let me know.

“Never before has there been such a complete comprehensive children’s book on the Holy Ghost, and for all ages. Unlike most children’s books, this book is full of scripture references, it teaches my children to study the scriptures and source truth at any age.  This is my new baptismal gift for every child, better yet, a gift for any child entering primary!” — Suzanne Calton, founder of More Than Aware

Read & Rejoice

It’s great to be eight.

Our youngest just turned six and is learning to draw the number 8. She got a small whiteboard as a gift and covers the surface with figure eights, 8 and says to me, “I can’t wait to be 8.

What a blessing to have “I Want to Be Baptized” and “The Holy Ghost is Like a Blanket” for her to read and ponder before she turns eight and makes that important choice in her life.

I had the blessing of signing a few books for some friends who came to town. I do love signing books for special events like baptisms and confirmations.

The gospel is a joy and at this Easter season when we rejoice in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I find happiness abounding all around in the simple joys of life, even drawing the letter 8, it’s great!

Celebrate!

Stay Tuned – I’ll be headed to Provo/Orem the first week of May for book signing events.

Birthday Party
