ee Publishing and Nana Star

I have one four year old little boy who was pretty excited when we recently opened a box from ee Publishing. Elizabeth Sills and Elena Patrice are two sisters who developed the Nana Star world including a picture book series and huggable plushies to go with them. The based the series and characters on ones dreamed up by their grandmother. The stories are intended to build up children's faith and and modeling virtues such as compassion, kindness and generosity.

We were sent the book Nana Star and the Moonman ($15.95) to read. My little guy immediately wanted to get that Moonman plushie ($19.95) out of the box to hold while we read the story. The Moonman is adorable. He glows and plays a short lullaby when you hug him making him fun to snuggle over and over. The story a very sweet story about Nana Star trying to get Moonman home. The illustrations were beautiful as well making this is a very fun bedtime read. I was drawn in by the story as was my little listener. Included in the book is a CD of the story being read. A nice feature after mommy has read the book several times already. We have been reading this one over and over and over and wherever my son goes lately, Moonman is not far behind.

As well as the book series and plushy, the ee publishing company also has other products for you to look at. The company's mission is "to give and believe in compassionate corporate citizenship" and as a result a portion of all Nana Star proceeds go to the Nana Star Foundation helping terminally ill children and under resourced inner city schools. I love knowing that my dollars are being put to good use when I purchase a product. Go to the Nana Star website for more information and product ordering.
