Now, let’s dive into the heartwarming story behind this book. Kelly explained in a video that River Rose is at such a delightful age where everything is magical. “She just gets so excited about it, I thought it would be a fun book for her to read,” Kelly said with a big smile. The story revolves around River Rose staying awake on Christmas Eve to deliver her letter to Santa Claus. But, surprise! She and her furry friend fall asleep and find themselves on an unexpected trip to the North Pole. How cool is that?
Kelly’s Journey into Children’s Literature
This isn’t Kelly’s first rodeo in the world of children’s books. Just eight months prior, she released her debut book, River Rose and the Magical Lullaby. Back in February 2016, Kelly announced this project on Twitter, sharing a video of herself bursting with excitement. “I’m officially a children’s book author! River Rose and the Magical Lullaby comes out this October!” she wrote, making her fans cheer with pride.

In that sweet video, Kelly shared the inspiration behind her first book. She talked about her experiences traveling with River Rose, “It’s kind of a cool thing to be on a plane with my daughter, we were going on trips to the UK and Asia and Australia, all these amazing places that she was too little to remember.” She added, “Basically I started writing down these little fun stories — of like when we went to Australia and she got to hang out with some kangaroos.”
Kelly’s hope is that her books inspire little ones to dream big and believe in their potential. “I guess my hope is for little kids to read River Rose and the Magical Lullaby and be inspired by it, and know they can achieve anything,” she said earnestly. “And still dream big and make big things happen.”
Kelly and her husband, Brandon Blackstock, welcomed River Rose in June 2014. Their family also includes their 14-month-old son, Remington. It’s clear that being a mom has opened up a whole new world for Kelly, one filled with creativity, love, and adventure.
