2 min read

A small, yellow frog named Ferdinand discovers the true meaning of Christmas in the latest book for children by Loving Healing Press author, Jay Tucker.

Ferdinand thinks that Christmas is just about the toys! A fateful visit to Santa Claus teaches Ferdinand that Christmas is about so much more. The precocious frog hears the Biblical story of Jesus’ birth on Christmas morning and his heart is changed forever.

“Ferdinand Finds Christmas” is the newest book by Tucker. The book is written in rhyme and it teaches that the true meaning of Christmas is all about celebrating the birth of Christ and the love of family and friends.

Tucker is the Youth Director at Cypress Lake United Methodist Church in Fort Myers. He has four books published with Loving Healing Press.

His other titles include “Ferdinand Uses the Potty,” and “The Whole Youth Worker.”

The new book is available now through Amazon, Barnes & Noble online, and from local bookstores when they special order from Ingram.

Loving Healing Press also announced it will be partnering with Cypress Lake United Methodist church by gifting “Ferdinand Finds Christmas” to families with young children who attend the Christmas Eve services.

The gift of one book per family will be given at the 3, 5, 7 and 9 p.m. services while they last.
