Lisa Marks and Janet McBride, both mothers, recently created a new brand of books and products for young children based on characters call Focus Friends. Their company is producing a series of high quality children's picture books and related products for children ages 2-9. The debut title, Joy is the Greatest Gift, features character Joyann who shows children ways of celebrating joy every day, through the beauty of the world around them, by having fun, in time spent with loved ones, and by spreading joy to others. The book’s message is one that helps children to develop positive thought patterns and emotions, strengthen relationships, enhance creativity, and practice important life skills. Beautifully illustrated by award-winning artist Eris Klein, Joy is the Greatest Gift, is a superb book with an inspiring message. And at the end of the book there is a "Joy List" activity for the child to complete, actively applying the concept of living joyfully to the child's life. Focus Friends also offers framed artwork perfect for children's bedrooms and playrooms. Their second book, Appreciation Party, is to be released this fall.
