Intro  

Jean Hall Author and CEO of Starlight Magazine, she is a writing coach for teens and has spent most of her adult life ding fun things with children of every age. But she always wanted to be a writer and felt a call to do so. In 2016 her dream of writing stories for children was realized and Jean signed her first book contract with Little Lamb Books. She was going to share her Bountiful Blessings a series of four picture books about the seasons and her first book was called The blessings of Fall which was released in September 2019. But then the publisher went out of business and so did her dreams or did they??  

Through the cracks and broken places of her dream the Lord called her to write again. She writes to shine the light of Christ by uplifting and encouraging others through: 

  • Poems and devotionals for adults and children 
  • Fiction and Nonfiction Picture books and board books 
  • Stories and poems for children’s magazines 
  • “Slice of life” essays for anthologies like Chicken Soup for the Soul 
  • StarLight Magazine, her newest God-venture  

Top three takeaways  

  1. You are the one in charge of your children's education, you get to pick and choose those connections. Just don't ignore them. Being a lone wolf is exhausting. 
  2. How they believe StarLight feeds curiosity, sparks interest, instills truth, and makes learning fun. While it is not tailored to fit any specific curriculum it is a resource for both parents and students to use in augmenting whatever curriculum they choose. 
  3. How their wide spectrum makes their content flexible for discerning parents to use. It allows parents to guide their children in choosing which content they use, and to teach their children to sample new content and take on new challenges.
