StoryJumpers Grand Finale!
2026/09/04
StoryJumpers! Thank you for taking this incredible adventure with me!
This podcast was created FOR KIDS! The inspiration came from time spent with my own children. They loved listening to story podcasts as we drove around town. Many of those podcasts did not honor God or encourage my kids\' growing faith. Thanks to a little imagination, and the example set by Mister Rogers\' Neighborhood and Reading Rainbow... StoryJumpers was born!
Many of you have great memories of discovering great stories with a Christian worldview, thanks to StoryJumpers. It was such a special opportunity to sit and talk with the authors who took the time to have a conversation with the kids who read their work.
Our friends at Ice Cream With Authors will continue to explore great books for kids and introduce the authors behind those stories. Check them out on The Bridge Podcast Network...

This gentle, reassuring picture book by bestselling author Glenys Nellist and illustrator Sian James encourages children to notice God all around them, in the ordinary people and places of everyday life.
Glenys Nellist is the author of multiple children's books, including 'Twas the Evening of Christmas' featured in another episode of Story Jumpers!

More Than Your Mountains by Whitney Ward
2026/07/31
Did you know God made you MORE than your disease, and He has a purpose for you?
No matter how many needle sticks you get that make you shout “Ow!” or scary tests that make you want to scream or cold waiting rooms you have to sit in that make you feel small - God sees you, your bravery, and the MORE He created you to be.
Whitney Lane Ward is a public speaker and writer who encourages audiences to overcome their circumstances. As someone with a disability, it is her wish to give hope to others with illnesses so they will scale the mountains they face.
The author’s disease began when she was a little girl, so Whitney knows first-hand the emotions and feelings children experience and the frightening unknowns they face. In this book, Whitney encourages every child who’s battling a disease to see themselves how God sees them and shout the powerful message to the world— “I am MORE!”
She was the first person in the world to be diagnosed with the disease she has. She also had the honor of naming it!
The name I chose was MAGIS Syndrome. MAGIS means “more,” in Latin and I want anyone who is diagnosed with this disease to know that they are MORE!
You can get a copy of her book at her website or by visiting https://whitneylaneward.com or Amazon.

Our God Is Bigger Than That! by Michelle Medlock Adams and Eva Marie Everson
2026/07/10
Our God Is Bigger Than That! begins as the sun rises on the farm, and baby farm animals face their individual fears throughout the day.
All discover a simple truth―God’s much bigger than their fears. As the sun sets on the farm, the farmer’s little daughter is headed to bed, yet she is afraid of the dark. She faces her fear, too.
The same repeated stanza: “God’s greater than your greatest fear. He knows just where you’re at. No matter what you face in life― Our God is bigger than that!” continues throughout the book, with only “the source of the fear” changing in each spread.

Jack vs. the Tornado by Amanda Cleary Eastep
2026/07/03
In the first book of the Tree Street Kids series, 10-year-old Jack is shocked to discover his parents are moving from their rural homestead to the boring suburbs of Chicago.
Full of energy and determination, Jack devises a plan to get himself back to his beloved farmhouse forever.
Only three things stand in his way: a neighbor in need, a shocking discovery, and tornado season.
Will Jack find a solution? Or is God up to something bigger than Jack can possibly imagine?
The Tree Street Kids live on Cherry, Oak, Maple, and Pine ... but their 1990s suburban neighborhood isn’t all quiet, tree-lined streets. Jack, Ellison, Roger, Ruthie (and Midge!) find adventure in every creek and cul-de-sac — and God’s big love in one small neighborhood.
The first two books in this four-book middle-grade series, ages 8-10, released from Moody Publishers in April 2021.
Amanda Cleary Eastep is not related to Beverly Cleary but wishes she were. She is, however, a children’s writer, and the Tree Street Kids is her debut series. Amanda knows kids because she’s still one at heart. When she is forced to act like an adult, she edits nonfiction books by grown-up authors.

Mystery in Rocky Mountain National Park by Aaron Johnson
2026/06/26
Before Jake’s grandfather died, he was on the trail of a centuries-old mystery. And he has entrusted that mystery to Jake, leaving behind a set of hidden codes, riddles, maps, and other clues that lead Jake and his friends on a scavenger hunt into the heart of Colorado’s wild and rugged Rocky Mountain National Park.
Through twists and turns, the mystery unfolds while Jake, Amber, and Wes learn about survival skills, natural history, integrity, character, and friendship.
While camping in Rocky Mountain National Park, they discover they are not the only ones on this quest. An elusive shadow group is close on their heels.
Illustrated by the author, this page-turning adventure is designed to capture the imagination of even the most reluctant of young readers. Parents looking for a delightful read-aloud adventure will find it hard to put down. (Word of Caution: readers frequently note that this is a “Please read just one more chapter” book).
If your family loves the enchanted lands of our national parks, this series will take you to hidden places and into breathtaking landscapes. If you enjoy movies like National Treasure and Uncharted or mystery adventures like the Hardy Boys and Gary Paulsen’s survival story, Hatchet, you’ll love this first installment of the National Park Mystery Series.
Aaron Johnson grew up on a farm in Ohio where he'd jump the fence to hike into the swamps, gullies, ravines, and gorges in a place they called The Deep Fields. He wrote his first book in second grade, and continued to write as a teenager.
Then he became a high school and middle school teacher, and went on to work for twenty years in education. He's so grateful to bring his many passions together in this new life-chapter as an author: the outdoors, writing, the national parks, illustration, and his interest in fields of history, conservation, and the natural sciences. And he gets to squeeze my terrible dad- jokes into my stories.
Their family lives in Colorado where Aaron spent over six months exploring and leading backpacking trips into Rocky Mountain National Park. That's why the adventure begins in RMNP, in the heart of a place that he thinks of as home.
Aaron hopes your family not only enjoys these stories, but also develops a deeper affection for our national parks and the other wild places near you.

Voyage with Vikings by Marianne Hering
2026/06/19
While visiting Mr. Whittaker at Whit’s Soda Shoppe, Beth and Patrick find a mysterious letter in the Imagination Station requesting a Viking sunstone. The letter is old and says that someone named Albert will be imprisoned if the sunstone isn’t found.
Mr. Whittaker sends cousins Patrick and Beth to Greenland circa 1000. On their quest for the sunstone, the cousins meet Vikings Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson―and find the sunstone as they join Leif on his first voyage to North America.
But the adventure is just beginning, for when they return to Mr. Whittaker’s workshop with the sunstone, there is another note waiting for them, requesting a silver goblet.
Join Patrick and Beth as they travel to various lands and times in the Imagination Station book series!
VOYAGE WITH VIKINGS is the first book in The Imagination Station series from Focus on The Family!
Your children will sail with Vikings! Meet a Roman explorer! Be an American Revolutionary! And take a thrilling train ride through the Wild West!
With each book, kids are whisked away with cousins Patrick and Beth to embark on a new journey around the world and back in time. Kids experience unforgettable, action-packed adventures when they travel through the Imagination Station series.
You know those tests kids take in the first grade? It’s the first time they have to fill in a sheet of paper covered in little dots. Well, when one of her twins took that test, author Marianne Hering found out that her son Lewis couldn’t read.
So along with a fellow parent and coworker—Paul McCusker—she dove into the world of historical fiction for kids. She wanted to create some stories that had action and adventure but were easy to read. And one last thing—they needed lasting value. So they put in Christian history and some good role models.
Since she had been a professional writer and editor at Focus on the Family for more than a decade, she had a good idea how to start The Imagination Station book series. Paul McCusker was a producer and scriptwriter for Adventures in Odyssey, so he had a pretty good idea about how the Imagination Station should work.
Marianne Hering lives in Colorado, a place where the natural beauty makes it difficult for her to stay indoors. But she stays inside to write books for kids and their families.
And her son Lewis? Well, he’s in college now learning to be a chemical engineer! He still likes numbers better than letters. But . . . he can read!

Road Trip Rescue by Becca Wierwille
2026/05/29
Twelve-year-old Kimmy trusts dogs more than people.
After all, her dog Bo never made fun of her for having one hand. But two years ago, Bo disappeared.
When Kimmy stumbles across a magazine photo of a dog in upstate New York that looks just like Bo, she knows she has to find him. Her parents seem oddly unsupportive, but pink-haired, adventure-hungry Aunt Skylar agrees to a road trip with a stop in the Adirondacks. Kimmy jumps at the chance to bring her furry family member home.
Unfortunately, Aunt Skylar’s idea of a road trip isn’t the rescue mission Kimmy had in mind.
Enjoy this reading of Road Trip Rescue by Becca Wierwille...
Becca Wierwille writes stories to show kids they are wonderfully created for the unique adventures in their lives. Born with only half of her right arm, she aims to help others find beauty in what makes them extraordinary. Mom by day and novelist by relatively early in the morning, she wishes she could eat peach pie as often as most writers drink coffee.
Despite her dreams of sandy beaches and mountain peaks, she loves living in Pennsylvania with her family. Road Trip Rescue is Becca's debut novel.
Like Kimmy, the main character in Road Trip Rescue, Becca was born missing half of her right arm.
As a parent and a former teacher, she writes stories to show kids they are wonderfully created for the unique adventures in their lives. They are not perfect, but they are extraordinary, and they are loved. And every adventure will be better when they know they’re not alone.
