Lauren Merryfield Publishes an Audiobook:

Jesus Makes the Difference: A Collection of Stories for Young People is now in audiobook format at iTunes and audible.com. Lauren's book setting is a fictional account of a school for the blind at which some students come to realize that their difficult situations can be made better and at times easier with the help of Jesus. There are serious moments and some humor throughout the book.

Because she enjoyed writing about these characters so much, a sequel is nearly finished for publication.
