This sweet story highlights the life of Jude, a great Mother, Grandmother and friend to all. Through the actions of her life, we learn the A-B-C’s of unconditional love.
The book engages little readers in reflection questions to apply the virtues of loving others to their own life.
If everyone loved like Jude, the world would be a better place.
My Mother, Jude, passed away 3 years ago from a valiant battle with ovarian cancer. My 8 year old daughter, Kenya, and I wrote this special book to honor her.
She was a beacon of love to everyone she touched and had a light that never stopped shining….even in her final moments.
This book began as a legacy album of stories, qualities and pictures that we would give to our family so her impact would be handed down to our next generations.
Then as I began writing, it quickly expanded into a bigger vision of sharing Jude and her special kind of love with the rest of the world.
This beautifully illustrated children’s book is a sweet story about Jude and qualities she role modeled that make up the ABCs of unconditional love.
And don’t we now more than ever need more unconditional love in our world?
It engages little readers in a reflective question on each page to have them interact and apply love lessons to their own life.
Thank you for buying, reading and sharing For the Love of Jude!
