They can sow love, confidence, and the freedom for children to be who they were created to be! Much of how a child views their world and ultimately their Father in heaven is impacted by how adults respond to kids’ everyday adventures. Words are powerful–they should mirror the love of Jesus.
In Daddy and Me, Daddy’s form is left to the imagination. Every child is free to picture their own Daddy and most importantly their heavenly Father–the Father who loves them perfectly, without reserve no matter what, while gently holding each child in His hand.
Parents will be reminded of the important role they play in a child’s life. Children will enjoy the fun rhymes in Daddy and Me and will learn they are unique and special and loved.

Knight In Battered Armor

Princess Melina is meant to rule her father’s kingdom someday, but she doesn’t want to do it alone. However, the search for a noble suitor brings a monster to the palace gates. When monster Lord Tempesto captures her and threatens to devour her beloved kingdom if she doesn’t marry him, she has no choice but to submit to the repulsive monster’s demands.
James, the son of a knight, hears about Princess Melina’s plight and sets out on the long journey to rescue her. But his own skills aren’t enough to win the fight against such a ruthless, powerful monster, and it takes teamwork between the captive and her rescuer to save the kingdom from the monster for good.
