In this app, readers are introduced to main character and young boy, Luca, whose magical eyelashes help make him brave.  A few of the upgrades to this app include:

  • More interactivity has been added to pages, enhancing a child’s interaction with the story. In addition, cover art and illustrations within the book have been enhanced.
  • New narration offers a ‘’read to me” option.

“Our Luca Lashes series helps children overcome their fear around new experiences such as dentist appointments and first haircuts, and it provides tips for parents to introduce these new experiences to their child. Our first app in the series is free so readers can meet Luca and get a feel for his approach to overcoming fears,” said Nicole Fonovich, Luca Lashes cofounder of Luca Lashes LLC. “Our team has given extensive thought to all of the upgrades in this app in order to create the best interactive learning experience.”

Created by long-time educators Nicole and Damir Fonovich, the Luca Lashes® eBook and app series were inspired by their little boy, Lucas, and their desire to help him be brave in all his childhood discoveries. Many children fear the unknown, but with the help of a good story, and Luca’s magic lashes, they too can overcome their fears and learn from the world around them. The Luca Lashes® series makes first experiences, from hospital visits to swim lessons, a more positive experience for children and parents.In fact, parental sections accompany every story and assist parents with making the “first” experience more comfortable.
