Blake Shelton once again proved the positive power of social media.

About a year ago, children's book author Frankie Williams tragically lost her daughter to undiagnosed heart disease, and she found comfort in Craig Morgan's song "The Father, My Son and the Holy Ghost" that dealt with the untimely death of his son as well.

Williams tweeted at both Morgan and Shelton because he was helping promote the song, saying how much the heartfelt tune means to her. Shelton tweeted her back saying people like her inspire him.

Fast forward to this year and Williams published another children's book, The Merdragon, a tribute to her daughter.

She then tweeted at Shelton saying she finished the book and asked if he wanted a copy. 

Not only did Shelton tweet her back but he said "let's all order it!!!" and with that one little sentence, sales for The Mergragon SKYROCKETED. 

The book is now in the Top 5 charts of three different children's book categories on Amazon! 

Williams then went on Twitter to thank Shelton and show her appreciation for his kindness!
