How exciting it was to receive this wonderful package in the mail. My kids were waiting in anticipation for the arrival of Nana Star and Moonman.
These books are wonderfully written by two sisters named Ellizabeth Sills and Elena Patrices who also happen to be the publishers and all-around creative-junkie entrepreneurs. The characters were created by their grandmother and brought to life by them with vibrant and colorful picture books and huggable character plushies.
Each book contains vintage-inspired illustrations and old fashioned values and also come with storytime CD with sing-along songs. And my children truly enjoyed the sing-along songs.
These products were a pleasure to review. Being a home school mom of 5, I am always looking for quality 
books that promote positive values and these books certainly do that. The plushies and CD were added incentives that my little ones enjoyed and my little guy actually loves Moonman, his new little friend.
The books were very easy to read and the pictures were vibrant to catch your little one’s attention as well as the engaging story lines. Nana Star’s journey is to return the lost baby star to his home in the heavens and will be introducing many new special friends in the near future.
The company called Laugh Friendly is actually holding a contest where they will give away to packages that include the book and a plushie, one to keep for yourself and one to donate to a children’s hospital, day care center, etc of your choice. More details can be found at http://www.laughfriendly.com/blaph but hurry because the contest ends on July 7th.
These books were a pleasure to read and feel honored to have been able to preview them with my children.
To learn more about these wonderful products go to Nana Star.
The Chronicles continue…..

We certainly hope upcoming books and toys in the series find their way to your home and to your children!
BTW, you have a wonderful blog! No doubt I will spend more time visiting and reading! Oh we placed your review and live link on http://www.nanastar.com/bloggers.html. We hope our visitors head your way and can then appreciate your great work as well.
