New Children’s Book Series, Written by South Florida Mother, Addresses Cystic Fibrosis with Endearing Childhood Love Story

Kyle’s First Playdate, the follow-up story to Kyle’s First Crush, continues the heartwarming story of a little boy’s crush on a beautiful girl who melts his heart. The book, written by children’s book author and Weston resident Leah Orr, is second in a series of books that will follow this sweet young couple through their school days and playdates.

According to Orr, the beautiful girl featured in the story, Ashley Elizabeth, is not a fictional character – it’s Orr’s daughter, who was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) prior to birth. “I wanted to share the joy and importance of young love and great friendship, while at the same time briefly address a disease that affects many children as well as adults all over the world,” said Orr, a mother of three. “I am donating all the proceeds to the CF Foundation and will continue to write one book every year until a cure is found!”

Kyle’s First Playdate follows the young boy’s first playdate with a girl. Ashley Elizabeth is not just any girl, but his very special girl friend. This book chronicles their fun-filled Saturday adventure together. The beauty of this story as well as Orr’s original tale, Kyle’s First Crush, is that they are told through Kyle’s eyes, a sweet, young romantic.

Kyle’s First Playdate is available through AuthorHouse and amazon.com. More information can be found at www.kylesfirstplaydate.com.
