Book set inspired by Frank Leto’s educational music, illustrated by granddaughter

April 16, 2021 by Rachel Kincaid Leave a Comment

From Frank Leto, “last year, we all spent a lot of time in doors. My daughter, Maria, and my granddaughter, Chloe, used that time to make 4 illustrated children’s books, inspired by some of my songs. Maria adapted the songs into manuscripts and storyboarded her concepts and Chloe brought them to life and illustrated all four books! 

They look great! I am so proud of them. We have made the decision to self-publish and Maria has started a Kickstarter for people to pre-order our books and help fund some of the very high printing costs to make and distribute the books. Would you be willing to share this with any family or friends that you think might be interested? 

They are fun and interactive board books for ages 0-4 and they’re illustrated by Chloe, age 5! They would also be a great resource for teachers (preschool through kindergarten). And how fun is it for kids to read a book made by another kid!! 

HERE is the link to view our Kickstarter campaign. We also made a cute video about it.  Can you help us spread the word?

It’s been such a fun project to distract us from the craziness in the world and we are excited to share it with everyone! If we reach our Kickstarter goal, Chloe can become a published illustrator!! How cool is that? 

Thanks, Frank”
