Children’s Author Gives Away Books to Help Parents and Teachers

Kids are passing their time at home learning about new topics while exploring books. Children’s book author Donald Jacobson understands the struggles parents are having keeping their children entertained and engaged. He is offering free downloads of two of his books on his official website.

Both books celebrate the efforts of medical workers, scientists and other community helpers. He hopes that these books will help inspire positive thoughts and conversations with kids during these challenging times. 

“I’m a dad, and I’m adjusting to the work-from-home thing, so I know what parents are going through right now,” commented the clearly passionate Jacobsen. “I wanted to find some way to help struggling parents handle the stress of suddenly turning into full-time homeschool teachers, and this is one way that I knew I could help.”

The free kids’ books are titled My Daddy the Amazing Nurse and Mighty Mommies and Their Amazing Jobs. Both books are written by Jacobsen and illustrated by Graham Evans. A third book by Jacobsen and Evans, Celestina, the Astronaut Ballerina, is available for sale at Amazon.com.

In addition to being a children’s author, Jacobsen is a proud husband, a father to two girls, and a registered nurse who lives and works in Memphis, Tennessee with his happy and supportive family.
