Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Northfield Publishing debuts a new illustrated children’s book A Perfect Pet for Peyton (Feb 2012) by bestselling authors Gary Chapman and Rick Osbourne featuring four-color illustrations—with hidden details—by Wilson Williams, Jr. The first in a series, this book will introduce children to learning the importance of giving and receiving love and explores each child’s love language. Northfield’s Senior Vice President of Media, Greg Thornton, says, “this wonderfully imaginative and classically illustrated story will help children understand their own love language, and that of their friends.” With over 1 million copies sold since it was first published in 1997, the fresh edition of parenting guide, The 5 Love Languages of Children (Northfield Publishing, Feb 2012) by Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Ross Campbell helps parents discover the love language of their child. Updated with an epilogue written especially for parents of teenagers and/or adult children, as well as including a Love Languages Mystery Game, this accessible resource also shares ways parents can effectively convey unconditional feelings of respect, affection and commitment resonating in their children’s emotions and behavior. Thornton says this much-loved bestseller, “will encourage and motivate a whole new generation of parents (and their children!).” Both titles will release simultaneously in ebook format.
