The Morning Glories, founded by Mississippi Trailblazer 2024 Inspire Award recipient Nicole Mangum, is a business that transforms children’s stories into personalized, beautifully illustrated storybooks. With the goal of empowering both parents and children to become entrepreneurs while nurturing creativity, The Morning Glories provides a unique opportunity for families to bring their special moments to life. Through custom-written stories and illustrations that resemble their child and favorite family members, parents can offer their children a one-of-a-kind adventure story.
The Morning Glories was born out of a simple yet heartfelt idea—turning moments from everyday life into unforgettable stories. Nicole Mangum, an accomplished author and the founder of Liberation’s Publishing House, first introduced the concept with A Cake for Mommy, a delightful story inspired by her own children’s hilarious adventure in baking a birthday cake for their mother. The success of this prototype led to the creation of The Morning Glories, which now helps families everywhere turn their children’s experiences and imaginations into cherished books that will be treasured for generations.
The business has become known for its unique approach to personalized children’s books. Unlike other products that merely add a child’s name into a generic template, The Morning Glories offers completely custom stories, ensuring that each child’s adventure is one of a kind. Not only are the stories personalized to reflect the child’s experiences, but the illustrations also resemble the child and their favorite family members, bringing the narrative to life in a deeply personal and meaningful way.
Nicole Mangum, the founder of The Morning Glories and Liberation’s Publishing House, is no stranger to overcoming challenges in the publishing world. As a West Point, Mississippi native, Nicole’s journey into the literary world began with her love of writing children’s books. Her path was not without its difficulties, as she saw firsthand the challenges many aspiring authors face in finding a publisher. Motivated by these struggles, Nicole established Liberation’s Publishing House,a family-run publishing company that provides aspiring authors with a platform to share their stories with the world.
For over 11 years, Liberation’s Publishing House has been a trusted name in the publishing industry, known for its high-quality services and personalized approach. With more than 200 authors and an in-house illustrator, the company has grown into a nationwide entity. Nicole’s dedication to excellence and her commitment to uplifting authors in the literary world have earned her recognition and accolades. In 2024, she was honored with the prestigious Mississippi Trailblazer’s Inspire Award, a testament to her tireless work and contributions to the publishing industry.
The Morning Glories sets itself apart from its competitors by offering a level of personalization that goes beyond the standard “fill-in-the-blank” approach seen in many personalized books. Each story and illustration is thoughtfully crafted to reflect the unique characteristics of the child, creating a truly bespoke product. Parents are not simply receiving a book with their child’s name inserted into it—they are receiving a story that is tailored specifically to their child’s personality, preferences, and experiences.
“Your child’s story, their way,” said Nicole Mangum. “Ready to create yours? Let’s bring their imagination to life!” This sentiment encapsulates the core mission of The Morning Glories—to inspire children and families to embrace their creativity and see their dreams come to life through storytelling.
Through The Morning Glories, Nicole Mangum and her team at Liberation’s Publishing House continue to redefine what it means to create a personalized children’s book. Their commitment to quality, uniqueness, and family-centered storytelling sets them apart from the competition, offering a product that is both meaningful and memorable for parents and children alike.
By blending creativity with entrepreneurship, The Morning Glories offers families the opportunity to share their special moments and experiences in a way that is truly one-of-a-kind. Whether it’s a birthday, a family vacation, or a simple day of fun, The Morning Glories helps bring children’s stories to life—one adventure at a time.
