Sometimes a parent has an injury or illness that requires hospitalization. How do you help children get through that first experience visiting a parent in the hospital? Your child can join Luca Lashes as he finds out how! This multilingual, educational, interactive, audio app continues the award-winning Luca Lashes series about children’s first experiences. It is available in Chinese, English, French, Italian, and Spanish.

This is the eighth app in the series based on Luca Lashes—the brown-eyed boy with the magic eyelashes! In this story, Luca visits his Mommy in the hospital where she has to spend the night. Join Luca in this interactive adventure as he experiences the sights and sounds of a typical hospital. Children will enjoy watching the hospital come alive as they touch different areas of the interactive screen. The app also contains suggestions for parents to help them prepare their children for a potentially difficult experience.

The author wrote the story for children four and under. To help children learn to read, individual words are highlighted as the story is narrated. Luca Lashes LLC promotes early childhood reading by combining original text with terrific artwork and audio narration. Each part provides entertainment and interactive learning opportunities. It is never too early to fall in love with language!

What Readers are Saying About Luca Lashes



"The books are very well put-together - the illustrations are adorable and I like that there are interactive features. I also love the bonus parent tips, since sometimes it can be hard to know what the best way to approach a child's fear is." — Bekah, Motherhood Moment, 5/8/12

"The story offers kids a way to overcome their fears on their own, which I think is great! And the app lets kids poke around with the characters and the objects. It's cute. Also, other books in the series seem to target other common problem-areas. I look forward to more!" — StaticFox, Amazon review, Luca Lashes: The Brown Eyed Boy with the Magic Eyelashes, 5 out of 5 stars, 5/3/12

"I love that this book comes in multiple languages. What a great concept by having a parent's section at the end of each of your stories to provide guidance with first encounters. A great introduction of Luca in this story and I look forward to learning more about his character in books to come." — iTunes review, Luca Lashes: The Brown Eyed Boy with the Magic Eyelashes, 5 out of 5 stars, 5/4/12

“Luca Lashes is an innovative, fun, and exciting activity. It provides an incredible bonding experience for young families.” — Scott A. Irwin, M.D., Ph.D., 3/30/12
