Barbara Williamson's Newly Released "EO and Stymie" is a Heartwarming Story About What Two Farmyard Animals Can Teach Children About Empathy and Unconditional Love
"EO and Stymie" from Christian Faith Publishing author Barbara Williamson is a wonderful story about two young donkeys--Todd, nicknamed "EO," and Kelly, nicknamed "Stymie"--whose brother-sister relationship encourages them to become the best versions of themselves and inspire the other farmyard animals to stop bullying EO and instead grow with compassion, empathy, and appreciation for each other.
MEADVILLE, Pa., Sept. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "EO and Stymie": a feel-good story about unconditional love. "EO and Stymie" is the creation of published author Barbara Williamson, a five-time author and passionate mother and grandmother who strives to address injustices toward children in her stories.
Williamson writes, "She was born on May 25th in the same little barn in La Mesa.
EO stood by and smiled when he saw her. He said, 'Mom, I love her more than a million. I love her 8808602.'
Once again, he said something that became part of him and now a gift to his beautiful baby sister—8808602.
'Mom, I know you want to call her Kelly, but can her nickname be Stymie? She looks a little stymied by her new surroundings.'
'Yes, EO. That sounds like a wonderful nickname,' said his mother.
EO helped his mother take care of the beautiful baby girl. For the first time in EO's life, he seemed really happy. His mother knew it was because of Stymie because she also was very happy.
As Stymie grew, she and EO played together more and more. They became best friends. He would often say to her, 'I love you 8808602.' "
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Barbara Williamson's new book is a touching reminder of the transformative power that unconditional love has on those who give it and those who receive and witness it.
With the motto "Prayers up, blessings down," Williamson reminds children that no matter one's individual differences, traits, and talents, often all it takes is a bit of kindness, encouragement, and support to turn someone's life around for the best and grow in healthy self-esteem.
