Pages of Joy // John Greco

Hello!

First off, I need to apologize for not posting more frequently. I have been scrambling to finish my next book, and it has been more of a struggle than I imagined it would be. But I’m getting there, and on the other side of this project I hope to do more in this space.

That said, I wanted to let y’all know about some fun updates related to my other books.

First off, thank you to everyone who bought, read, and shared The Easter Lamb this past spring. I love that little book and am so pleased that God is using it to plant gospel seeds in the hearts of small children. Even though it was my first children’s book and the season had lots of great Easter releases, it landed at #16 on the ECPA Bestseller’s List for juvenile Easter books. Thank you!

On that front, I’m happy to say we’re doing it again! I recently signed a contract with Zonderkidz to publish a sequel (or is it a prequel?), tentatively titled The Christmas King. That release is still a long ways away (it takes a while to make a picture book), and I will update you as it comes along. In the meantime, please continue to share The Easter Lamb, especially as we get closer to next Easter.

For those of you don’t know, I also released another children’s book this past summer in connection with my day job. It’s called A Paintbrush for Joni. It’s an age-appropriate retelling of Joni Eareckson Tada’s story, published by Harvest House. If you’re looking for a Christian biography for littles, please check it out!

Going back to Christmas for a moment, there’s a fun promotion going on right now for Rediscovering Christmas. If you head to RediscoveringChristmasBook.com and scroll to the bottom of the page, you can download the first two chapters of the audiobook!

Rediscovering Christmas is something unique among Advent readers. Part retelling of the biblical Christmas story and part devotional, the book is designed to help new and seasoned believers alike discover deep truths often overlooked in the familiar account of Jesus’ birth.

Finally, the second installment in my TimeFall Trilogy series releases on Tuesday, November 4. That’s less than two weeks away! It’s called The Bewildering Courage of Emma Bloom, and it picks up where The Unlikely Intrusion of Adams Klein ended.

This time around, Emma and Clay are trapped in the future and, after escaping one of the Marshal’s comfort prisons, meet up with Adams Klein, who’s no longer the boy he once was. Together, they must seek out a hidden village rumored to exist somewhere in Appalachia. Meanwhile, the Marshal has uncovered an ancient evil and is poised to release it upon the world.

You can preorder The Bewildering Courage of Emma Bloom wherever you like to buy books.

That’s all for now. I hope you are enjoying the fall weather, wherever you are in the world.
