New York, February 18, 2014 - "God Made You Special" is one of the most recognizable episodes from Big Idea's top-rated children's program, VeggieTales. The series has also sold over 70 million videos, 15 million books, and 7 million CDs and is one of the most recognized brands amongst moms of preschoolers. Big Idea chose PlayTales for the adaption of the story for mobile platforms, which is available in both English and Spanish and features interactive elements on every page of the story.
"We are thrilled to partner with PlayTales to bring the God Made You Special app to families everywhere. Based on the best-selling book by the same name, the story celebrates being unique and reminds kids that everyone is special and loved by God," says Leslie Ferrell, President of Big Idea Entertainment.
PlayTales is one of the world's leading interactive children's book developers with millions of users around the globe and stories available in eight different languages. The PlayTales story catalog features popular children's brands and characters such as Sesame Street, Pocoyo, and Baby Popeye and now Veggie Tales will be added to its list of branded stories within the app.

"We especially liked the valuable lessons about acceptance and self-worth featured in 'God Made You Special' and the story is perfect for our young readers.
