“Anyone can do that”

by LearnAsYouGrow on July 31, 2010

I have been traveling around the country recently and took the opportunity  to test market “God Loves You So Much…”. This included families reading the book during flight delays and I even gave a few copies away.

In one instance, my flight was delayed and everyone with connecting flights was likely going to miss them. A father with three young girls was scrambling with his iPad and iPhone attempting to arrange a different connection, but the girls kept asking to play with his iPad. I could see he was getting frustrated, so I offered the girls a copy of “God Loves You So Much…” to help distract them.

First, the oldest girl read to the younger two and then they took turns “reading” the book individually. I was glad the book kept their attention as long as it did.

After the father completed his calls, he asked me a few questions about the book and, ironically, they used to live in the same area. We spoke for a few minutes and then he called his wife to inform him of their situation.

While on the phone, he mentioned the book to her and that it was published in Mount Horeb. She must have asked who published the book, because he asked if it was self-published. I responded that it was and he told his wife “Yeah, it’s self-published…anyone can do that.”

Anyone… indeed.
