Duck Dynasty stars present new children’s book: Dear Valor

Duck Dynasty Stars Jep and Jessica Robertson have published a new children’s book, Dear Valorby BRAVE Books, which celebrates and promotes child adoption.

“Our youngest is adopted. We adopted him when he was three days old,” Jessica Robertson said of her son Gus Robertson, who was the inspiration for the book.

When describing Dear Valor, Jessica said: “It’s about the trials that can come your way and about teaching children empathy and familiarising them with what life is like for an adopted child and their family.”

The children’s book was published by the up-and-coming Christian book publisher BRAVE Books. The story is about a tiger named Valor who is adopted by two lions who love him unconditionally. The story explores the “sweet” joys and challenges of adoption.

Jep Robertson told WMAL radio that he was told that if there was only one family in each church that adopted a child, “we would not have foster families.”
