Bloom, Marigold, Bloom

Bloom, Marigold, Bloom was inspired by an 8 year old girl who the Author, Taylor Bringard, and her family almost adopted in 2015. Told through poetry and impressionist art this book was created to teach children about life, to remind children that they are loved, and to encourage them to bloom where they have been planted. The little girl did not end up with the Bringard family, but the her bright light and incredible strength made a huge impact on the Author. This book is proof that every encounter and crossroad in our lives can make a difference. It is because of an 8 year old girl that Bloom, Marigold, Bloom was created. Now, in honor of her we are paying it forward and 10% of the proceeds will go to the GraceCentralCoast Adoption and Foster Care Ministry Fund. "The Adoption Fund has been established to help families overcome the financial obstacle of adoption and to support families who have taken in children whom have come from hard places and are struggling. God has commanded His people - the Church - to care for those in need. In addition, Grace Central Coast has two support groups for adoptive and foster care families and ongoing training's and conferences." -GraceCentralCoast Adoption and Foster Care Ministry Team "Taylor does an excellent job, in this delightfully and creatively written children's book, of showing a child that no matter how turbulent their past has been they can bloom where they are planted. Every child needs one loving adult and God in their life." -- Dori Iunker, GraceSLO Director of Kids Ministry, Foster mom to 28, Adopted mother of 2
