Helping you teach what matters most in the simplest way.

lighten print

We believe all children recognize and appreciate beauty in art and literature. We're working to get more of exactly that into their hands and hearts, so we can teach them what matters most in the simplest way.

Lighten print was founded in 2020 by Maddie & Kindal, friends turned debut author/illustrator duo, bringing their love for words and art together to make quality resources for families.

To provide families with beautiful resources that help teach and connect with what matters most in a simple, lasting way.

The Story of "Savior"

The Savior came simply,
on a quiet night.
His mother held him,
the star was bright.

An angel told Mary,
"Thou art highly favored, you'll bring forth a son."
Her faith never wavered.

More to come!
