only about angels but also about the beauty and innocence of creativity and imagination of children.
I hope your child enjoys the story of Alieya and her cat Tajo as she enjoys life with her family. I hope your child also begins to ask questions about God, creation, and angels. And through this, may you also explore God's Word and come to know Him in a deeper, more personal way. 6/4/2017 Fireflies![]() Author: Ginger Sanders Genre: Children Fireflies is a wonderful little book of a family with a loss. It explains death to a child in a simple way, showing hope and love.

The book also has a Memory Page in the back of the book, along with 'How to Lead a Child to Christ'.

4/2/2017 Mary's Song
![]() Reviewer: Elsie Stoltzfus I love horse stories, and this one was not a disappointment. Well written and engaging, it was a joy to read. What knocked a star for me was the fact that everything turns out well only when Mary disobeys her father. I heartily dislike that, especially in a book meant for children. And I admit it, the portrayal of a super sensitive, slightly overbearing parent has never been attractive to me. Other than that, I loved it! As I've said, it's engaging and fun, and more than anything else, it's about horses. 3/27/2017 Nothing to Fear
![]() Reviewer: Kelly Miller I love reading scripture into the lives of our children and grandchildren and when I saw the front cover of the book, Nothing to Fear, I was drawn in. The baby on the front is sweet and it's hard not to have an "Awww" moment. The 'story' is the scripture, 2 Timothy 1:7, with the author's added phrasing "I know I have nothing, nothing to fear, nothing to fear, when Jesus is near" 4 times throughout this small book. All the pictures within the book are of babies and toddlers and although they are cute, they could use better editing to make them brighter and clearer. Each picture also has a little bumblebee picture logo (for lack of a better word) on it. When reading the book with my 2 year old granddaughter, that little bee became quite troublesome. With "What that bee doing?" and "That bee bite the baby?" being repetitive questions. Although I thought that the cuteness of the babies in each picture would be fun for my grandbabies to look at, they were quite disinterested in the book and kept trying to flip the pages to get to the end. I think the scripture verse that was chosen was above the level of toddlers who really don't have a strong concept of what fear is or what it means to have a sound mind. The writing did not flow in a natural sing song manner as seemed to be the author's intention, judging by the back cover write up, and I struggled to find a rhythm when reading it out loud. This book would be wonderful for infants who don't have questions and would just enjoy the pictures of the babies. ![]() Reviewer: Margaret Welwood What a beautiful rendition of some very comforting Scripture! And what could be more appropriate than pictures of happy babies on every page, along with a happy dancing bee? I'm so glad I have this book to read to my young grandchildren--the poetry and the pictures are a hymn of praise to the God of all comfort, and a message of joy and safety to little ones. |
