As most of you know, I was invited to the Buckeye Book Fair for a book signing with 100 other authors. Most authors shared a table with another author, and I had the privilege and honor to share a space with Jill, the author of The Sparkle Egg and The Sparkle Box. I instantly felt a connection with her and was so excited when she shared she was going to have another book released around Easter time. We just received our copy on Friday and I cannot tell you how AWESOME it is. This book is simply amazing and so is Jill. I highly recommend it and wish I could give a book to everyone.
Here is a brief description of the book –
Easter is coming, and Sam loves Easter! But this year, he is upset about a lie he told his parents. Even though he apologized and they forgave him, Sam can’t shake the feeling that he is a bad kid for what he did. Meanwhile, his parents help him make a special Easter craft called a Sparkle Egg. His mom tells him to write anything he feels sorry about or ashamed of on a piece of paper and put it inside his Sparkle Egg.
On Easter morning, when he opens his Sparkle Egg expecting a surprise, Sam finds that it is empty! His parents explain that because Jesus died and rose again, we are forgiven. Like the tomb that first Easter Day, Sam’s egg is empty — and Sam’s wrongdoing is completely forgiven. Once he accepts this forgiveness fully, Sam realizes a truth: we can sparkle and shine with God’s light when we let God’s gift of grace into our hearts.
This touching story will strike a deep chord with readers of all ages, and the Sparkle Egg tradition will help readers and their families grasp the totality of God’s perfect grace.
Snag the The Sparkle Egg for ONLY $14.88 SHIPPED!! You will be so touched as you share this book with your family.
