Jolly Books

nd books about nothing. They read and they read and they read. There were tickles and giggles and everything wonderful that exists between a daddy and a daughter in those precious moments before she’s tucked in bed. After days and months of these sweet little readings, her daddy sat down to write her a very special story, a book just for her written and illustrated by her wonderful daddy. When it was completed, her daddy sat her in his lap in their white rocking chair where they had read night after night. To her delight her daddy read to her an Elephant in My Pocket. One day as her mommy was digging through their bedroom closet probably putting away laundry, every mommy’s favorite chore, she stumbled upon this magical book filled with rhymes and drawings and silly sayings. She was amazed at her husband’s work and the talent he possessed. Now sitting on the floor inside the closet, she thumbed through the book and with every page a dream was born. That night her mommy’s heart was filled to overflowing as she watched the talent of her husband and the joy of reading explode into a beautiful symphony of laughter and learning for their new baby daughter. A few years later another beautiful daughter arrived and their wonderful Daddy kept writing them books. The seat of their white, rocking chair is worn and their imaginations have explored places and concepts and countless whimsical woes. They have cultivated a deep love for learning and are blossoming into beautiful young ladies. All the while their mommy kept dreaming. She believed we could help more children discover the joy of learning and thus Jolly Books was born. An independent publishing company that believes laughter and learning go hand-in-hand.
