“Red Sneakers” from Christian Faith Publishing author Joan Parnell is a charming and lighthearted narrative for young readers that expresses an important message of giving thanks.
“Red Sneakers”: a darling rhyming work for young readers. “Red Sneakers” is the creation of published author Joan Parnell, an early childhood educator and artist and a mother of two boys.
Parnell was born and raised in Houston, Texas, and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. She currently resides in Glen Rose, Texas with her two Australian shepherds.
Parnell shares, This simple and adorable book is all about giving thanks for everyday blessings. Follow a young girl as she wakes up each day and dons her favorite red sneakers.
As she goes out into the world, she discovers that there is always something to be thankful for.
This sweet little book, set in rhyme, teaches the days of the week and reminds children to pause and give thanks daily for all the little blessings they receive.
