NEW CHILDREN'S BOOK APPS FOR CHRISTMAS!


App/The LonelyStable (JessicaKirkland)
Looking for a great children's book app the Christmas for your smartphone or IPad? Check out Jessica Kirkland's newest children's book app, The Lonely Stable. I just bought it on my IPad, and I'm excited to share it with my grandkids during the holidays. 

I also bought Jessica's first book app, The Sounds of Night on my IPad and my IPhone for my grandkids. It's a great story to read your children, especially at bedtime. The Sounds of the Night puts your young readers to rest, reminding them that God created all the animals—even the ones that make the scary noises at night. Even if your kids can't read, they will enjoy the sights and The Sounds of the Night!

I hope you'll check out both of Jessica's children's book apps. You'll be BLESSED! kj

Christmas App!

The Lonely Stable is a book app that reminds children that it's never too late to live out God's plan for their lives. Told from the stable's perspective, this intriguing Christmas book tells the story of Jesus' birth. From time to time, we all wonder about our purpose in life. The Lonely Stable wondered why he was still standing, for he was weathered and old. As time passed, he began to question his purpose. This remarkable tale is a lesson that both parents and children can hold on to when they ask questions like, "Why am I here?" or "Does God care about my life?" This book shows us that God has made each of us for a special purpose. The Lonely Stable is aimed at kids ages 2-10 years old.

THE SOUNDS OF NIGHT

DESCRIPTION: The Sounds of Night is a book app that helps put a child's mind at ease when the lights go out at bedtime. This book addresses one of the primary feelings young children face; fear. The Sounds of Night reinforces the principle that God is the Creator of every creature. Since God makes all the animals that scurry and screech at night, children can lie down and sleep in peace. 

FEATURES: The Sounds of Night has over 75 touch points/interactions. It has rich illustrations and 4 Bible verses on fear that kids can learn with their parents and share with their friends.

DEVELOPMENT: Jessica Kirkland is a member of Moms with Apps. She recently launched Christian Apps 4 Kids, which seeks to draw kids closer to Christ one app at a time. Her inaugural app is a result of the fear that was such a part of her life:

App/SoundsofNight/JessicaKirkland

In every season of life, the Enemy would whisper the lie that I would “never make it” to the next. I believed it. Time and time again, I thought his words held power. As a young child, I never thought I would live to see my school years. Once I entered school, I never thought I would live to see the next day, next grade, or milestone in life. I listened to a very real enemy, even though I didn’t want to. Even though I came from a strong, Christian family, I felt powerless to stop the lies. Fear gripped me, stole from me, and taunted every careful step I took.

Jessica believes the only way to be free from fear, as an adult or child, is to replace fearful thoughts with God's Word. Her desire for each book project is that they not only build character, but help set kids free.

The book app was developed in partnership with ROAR.
