The fruit of love will grow as they learn the truths in the Bible and reach out to serve others.

Freddie the Fruit of the Spirit Tree is the first book in the Freddie the Fruit of the Spirit Tree Series that will contain six books. Each book will focus on a fruit in the life of a believing child as he lives his life to serve Jesus Christ. In the first book the love of God is shown through the cross that Jesus died on and the empty tomb when He rose from the dead. The child becomes a new creation when trusting in Jesus and shows love to those around her instead of always thinking of herself first. The book has questions about the text with illustrated hints to remind the child of the meaning of what he has read. The answers are then given. There are also Scriptures that deal with love for the child to learn. The rhyming format will assist her to learn the text of the book, making the reading easier for those children just beginning to read.

Gail Hale always had a vivid imagination as a child and loved writing stories and poems, often acting them out. When Gail had her own children, she would make up stories at bedtime to teach the truths of God's Word. One of the stories involved Freddie the Fruit of the Spirit Tree. Now Gail has published the first Freddie the Fruit of the Spirit Tree Series book in rhyming format that began as a song and transitioned into a book. An audio version will be produced sometime in the future to accompany this printed book. To follow the adventures of Freddie in future books, please go to Gail's website, GailErwinHale.com where you will be able to see the latest information about the Freddie the Fruit of the Spirit Tree book series. Gail also has published adult Christian non-fiction, and this is her first endeavor writing a children's book.
