About Us

Welcome to Blessons For Living (BFL), a brand devoted to nurturing the next generation through the power of storytelling and entertaining learning. Our mission is to fill the gap in children's literature by creating engaging, educational content that imparts essential life lessons in a way that resonates with young minds.

At Blessons for Living, we believe that the stories children hear shape the adults they become. That's why our foundational series of 30 Blessons (Life Lessons) is crafted with care, presenting each lesson through rhymes, jingles, and vivid illustrations that captivate and educate. Our goal is to make these lessons not only understandable but also memorable, helping children embrace values like kindness, resilience, and gratitude as they grow.

In addition to our core series, BFL offers a Christian workbook for families seeking to blend faith with education.  The workbook reinforces the life lessons taught in the series. 

We also offer special titles like "A Girl Named Amaya," which encourages self-confidence in young girls, and "Victory Verbs," a book that explores verbs that inspire positive change. 

Our latest title is “Will You Vote For Me” written to introduce and develop an interest in the legislative process.  The book was written to create awareness with children that voting matters and to remind eligible voters that they have a hard fought right to vote and they should take advantage of this opportunity to vote not just for their lives, but also for generations to come.

Blessons For Living is more than just a brand—it's a commitment to guiding the next generation with wisdom, creativity, empowering our children to reach their fullest potential.

Elena Neely is an Author, Publisher, and is the owner of Blessons for Living, LLC.  She has written a ground breaking, foundational value based children’s book series entitled “Blessons for Living.”  It is a dazzling debut of three books, each beginning with the same title but different subtitle: Blessons For Living, “Planting Seeds of Greatness,” “The BEST of BEING,” and “Always Remember and Never Forget.”  It encompasses 30 important life lessons taught in a way that a child would understand.  Shared lessons are a blessing = BLESSONS.  Some Blessons include “Love Yourself, Be Grateful, The Power of One, Doing your best, and Forgiveness if Free.” The series has an accompanying workbook as all 30 Blessons are connected to scripture and this makes for a wonderful youth curriculum.

Elena sees a world that invests in our youth through books.  She encourages parents to read to their children early and often.  Sharing life lessons early will lift future generations.  In practicing this herself Elena wrote a book about her daughter entitled “A Girl Named Amaya, She Reached Inside Herself and Found Her Strength.” It encourages and inspires youth to believe in themselves despite challenges in life and to keep going towards their dreams and goals.
