Book Description
People fear death. We don't know how to talk about it, especially to children, and we're afraid to bring it up for fear of making people sadder. Yet children, especially, have questions, and this incredibly gentle and surprisingly light story is full of both comfort and vividly imagined "answers." The first one gives the book its title: A boy hears the voice of his sister calling him one day, a sister he's never met because she died before he was born. The sister in the faded photograph on the wall. So that night he asks his mother what death is like and she tells him, "It's like dreaming, only bigger." That's lovely, but he still has questions, which it turns out his sister can answer! On a dreamy, carefree adventure they ride their bikes together, (not always on the ground), visiting places that were special to her when she was alive. And she talks to him in the older sister, teasing, straightforward, loving way that is exactly what he needs. (It turns out that death is not the only thing that can be Bigger Than a Dream.) Much, much more than bibliotherapy, this is a work of art that speaks with honesty and tenderness about one of life's great mysteries.

Book Description
This is a book for world-changers -- for people ready to lay down everything in order to discover the adventure that God has in store for their lives. Dream Bigger unlocks your capacity to dream God-sized dreams and gives the Church encouragement to start dreaming in big, bold ways again! This day-by-day journey helps Christians not only to discover God's dream for their lives but to start taking real steps toward accomplishing those dreams. Author and EWTN host Dan DeMatte presents twenty-one days of meditations that sincere Catholics need to perform if they desire to live their lives for Jesus. DeMatte lays out a three-week, step-by-step plan to help you navigate your way to a life -- or life-altering -- decision. Daily activations and reflective questions will not only inspire you but actually propel you to lasting change. DeMatte also shows you how to prepare yourself -- with hard work and prayerful planning -- to begin pursuing the dreams you've felt called to pursue but have continually put off. You will overcome your fear of failure and grow in intimacy with Jesus. DeMatte's upbeat, exciting approach to applying the Gospels to your life includes: Meditations on what God thinks of your current life pursuits, priorities, and passions Revelations on the fullness of what Jesus means when He calls us all to deny ourselves Evaluations of the obstacles in your life that hold you back from experiencing greatness Prompts for growing in a faith that can truly move mountains Methods for experiencing intimacy with the Father through hearing His voice and experiencing His love Techniques for living with boldness and courage, while remaining meek and humble of heart Strategies for surrendering your dreams and desires to the Father who planted them inside you Means for overcoming fear of failure, spiritual plateaus, and inconsistent Christianity Keys to crystallizing the vision and plan for executing your God-given dream Tips for mobilizing those around you to partner with you in laboring in God's vineyard An analysis of why dreaming with God is fundamentally different from merely fantasizing with no recourse to action

Book Description
Have you ever had a dream? How did you make that dream come true? Dave McGillivray is a world-renowned athlete, entrepreneur, captivating motivational speaker, and philanthropist. He’s also the director of the Boston Marathon, the world’s oldest and maybe most famous annual race! But he wasn’t always so accomplished. In Dream Big: A True Story of Courage and Determination, his nonfiction picture book for readers ages 6 to 10, Dave shares his unique, true story about reaching deep and showing extreme determination in the face of doubt, disappointment, and loss. In Dream Big: A True Story of Courage and Determination, Dave is a small kid who wants more than anything to be a professional athlete. But there’s one problem. You have to be tall to play basketball. You have to be big to play football. And Dave? He’s little, but his dreams are BIG. He turns to running, because you don’t have to be big to be a marathon runner! But you do need to train. And Dave doesn’t do much training before he crosses his first starting line of the Boston Marathon. Which is probably why he doesn’t quite cross the finish line on his first attempt at the famous race. But his Grandpa believes in him, and that’s enough to make Dave train hard for the next Boston Marathon. But will his Grandpa be there to see him succeed? Kids and grownups alike will be inspired by Dave’s story of passion, determination, and grit. Nomad Press’s first foray into the genre of nonfiction picture books, Dream Big delivers on all the promise you’d expect from a vibrant, real-life character paired with an award-winning fine artist. Together, Dave McGillivray and Ron Himler create a story that is heartwarming, inspiring, and beautifully presented.
