It’s a sad fact that I don’t give nearly enough love here on the blog for my picture app THE BEDTIME KNIGHT. It really is a fun, imaginative story (with some insight into what I was scared of as a child), and I love how illustrator Erika Baird brought it to life with pictures. The blurb reads:
When this mouse’s nightlight turns off, shadows turn into scary things in the dark. But when Daddy shines his flashlight on them, they disappear and turn into friendly things! Read along to find out if this tiny mouse can overcome her fear of the dark.
The thing that got me thinking about THE BEDTIME KNIGHT is that it now has a new home! It was originally published by MeeGenius, a children’t eBook subscription service, which was recently acquired by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (who earlier this year acquired Scholastic’s Educational Technology and Services business for $575 million).
THE BEDTIME KNIGHT will be and is still available through the MeeGenius platform. I’m excited about this new partnership and am hoping it will help my picture book app find new readers.
Happy Friday, everyone!
It’s a lovely to see it again. May it grow an audience, Katie.
Thanks, Mirka!
What an adorable cover. The book sounds precious. Best of luck in its new home.
Thanks, Beverly! I do love how the illustrations came out.
This could turn into a very good thing for your app and for you! Congrats.
I hope so, Kai. Thanks!
We all sort of took a chance on MeeGenius, so it’s nice to have this – hopefully it attracts more readers for all our books.
You’re right about taking a chance, Jan. I do hope it works out for everyone. 🙂
That’s great. I hope it means more sales for you.
Thanks, Kelly!
