Jellybean received a review from Epic Pew this week and it included a sentiment that we have seen pop up frequently:
“Already on its second printing so quickly following its first printing with Holy Heroes, I plan to keep many copies of this book on hand for when I learn of a loss just in case it is sold out again. This book fills a hole that has long been waiting for something lovely and tender to enter. Holy Heroes has accomplished just that. No justifications. No poor excuses. No bad theology or being told the baby has wings or is an angel. Truth and tender care have gone into every page and drawing.”
We received another shout-out in The Epoch Times which included Jellybean in their May book round-up. Truly, we have been blown away by the overwhelming response–with the 1st printing selling out within days, the 2nd (larger) printing has continued to fly off the shelves.
As reviews continue to roll in, people have repeatedly thanked us for creating automatic bulk discounts because they wanted to purchase multiple copies for friends and families. We know Jellybean fills a much-needed hole for families–we hope this helps people share this resource with families who need it.
If you missed it, Heather from A Catholic Mom’s Life shared a similar sentiment to Epic Pew in her video about miscarriage resources.
Mothers continued to send their reviews for this picture book (replacing this book as our most reviewed product at Holy Heroes). A few have recently told us:
“Very tastefully done. Will bring some peace to someone who has lost a child. I like the fact that the whole family is considered”
“We are visiting a family tomorrow that recently lost their baby. My oldest daughter was upset to hear about this but seemed to really like the Jellybean book. So the book can help friends too.”
“I cannot recommend this book enough for anyone who has experienced a miscarriage. It is a simple, BEAUTIFUL depiction of a baby being called to heaven before they are born and how they pray for their family as they heal from their loss. Definitely made me cry and brought some healing.”
