The New Picture Book Introduces Children to the Magic of Books While Expanding the Educational World of Imagine With Lily
PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL / ACCESS Newswire / July 6, 2026 / Children's author Catherine Gibson announces the release of Lily Loves Books, a new picture book created to encourage young readers to discover the excitement, imagination, and lifelong benefits of reading.
Written for preschool and elementary-aged children, Lily Loves Books follows Lily as she discovers that every book is more than a story. It's an opportunity to learn, imagine, and explore new worlds. Through engaging storytelling and colorful illustrations, the book encourages children to develop a positive relationship with reading while celebrating curiosity and creativity.
"Reading is one of the greatest gifts we can give a child," said Catherine Gibson. "With Lily Loves Books, I wanted to create a story that helps children see books as adventures waiting to happen. My hope is that every young reader walks away inspired to open another book and keep exploring."
The release reflects Gibson's ongoing commitment to creating meaningful educational content that supports literacy and early childhood development. Designed for families, educators, librarians, and homeschool communities, the book reinforces the importance of reading while encouraging imagination, confidence, and creative thinking.
Key themes explored in Lily Loves Books include:
Developing a love of reading
Building imagination and creativity
Supporting early literacy skills
Encouraging curiosity and lifelong learning
Promoting family and classroom reading experiences
Lily Loves Books is also part of the growing Imagine with Lily collection, an educational initiative that extends beyond the printed page through original music, animated storytelling, educational videos, and companion learning resources. Together, these materials provide children with multiple ways to engage with stories while supporting literacy in both home and classroom settings.
As founder of For Children With Love, Catherine Gibson has dedicated her work to creating books and educational experiences that inspire children to believe in themselves, embrace kindness, and develop a lifelong love of learning.
