Rachel and the Lion - Book Release Party

This day marked a huge step forward in our lives. With the support and love from family and friends we had our first book release party. Rachel and the Lion is the first book in a book series that Stephanie has written. The event was marvelous in itself. There was music, food, drinks, books, posters, smiles, joy, book readings, raffles, cake and plenty of love. Our website is up and running if you would like to inquire more about our project http://www.mystoryhousebooks.com/.

Rachel is a 7 year-old girl who lives in a small town in Africa. Malaria has hit her town and Rachel who is sick, never stops fighting for her own joy. She discovers love in the wealth of her family
as a tragedy hits her household. Her special friendship with The Lion helps her cope and find her inner strength.


The Lion helps Rachel understand grief, conflict and truth. The Lion not only helps her during her loss but challenges her to be personally responsible for her actions. He lovingly correts her and opens her
eyes to a deeper level of courage, honesty and abundance.

This book is a great tool for parents in creating a platform in which to discuss pressing life issues such as sickness, death, honesty and espect.

This is a new generation of classic stories, the first of many more to come. So enjoy the journey as Rachel and the Lion become your child's new found friends.

Here some pictures of the the book release party. Many thanks to Open Box Designs for their time and execution on putting this event together and to Marlin Munoz for capturing this event with his talented vision.
