The Story Behind The Child King: Making The Child King
The Child King is the story of two brothers who embark on a memorable quest to find Santa Claus at the North Pole. The film stars Peter Johnson, a special young man from Scituate, Massachusetts who made cinema history as one of the few actors with Down syndrome to play a leading role in a feature motion picture. The film has been lauded by many individuals, publications and organizations including Exceptional Parent Magazine, The Special Olympics and Best Buddies International.
All producer’s profits from the sale of the film support the Child King Foundation, a non-profit entity that grants funds to those who advocate for the intellectually disabled. This month the foundation is awarding thousands of dollars in grant money thanks, in large measure, to generous word-of-mouth within the Down syndrome community.
The Child King feature-length movie offers a wonderful holiday soundtrack performed by popular recording artists such as Martina McBride, Willie Nelson, Jessica Simpson, Randy Travis, Brian Setzer, Aaron Neville and Vince Gill.
The Child King sells for $19.95 and includes free shipping. It’s available to purchase online at www.thechildking.com.
