Book Description
A job, a true love, a baby, a cure. . . We’re all waiting for something from God. And the place between His answers can feel like a wasteland where dreams—and faith—go to die. When we’re waiting, we wonder, “Why?”, “Why me?”, and “How long?” But the truth? . . . When God says, “Wait,” He doesn’t tell us for how long. When God says, “Wait,” we face one of life’s greatest tests. When God says, “Wait,” we have decisions to make. When God says, “Wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way. Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson invites you to walk alongside people of the Bible who had to wait on God. . .imperfect heroes like David, Miriam, Naomi, Sarah, Joseph, and others. Their stories will provide a roadmap for your own story, helping you navigate the painful, lonely territory of waiting, coming out on the other side with your faith, relationships, and sense of humor intact. They might even help you learn to enjoy the ride. This book is about the journey of waiting, the space between answers, and the people we become while we live there.

“The ideal time to begin sharing books with children is during babyhood, even with children as young as six weeks.” —Starting Out Right National Research Council All parents hope to give their children the best possible start in life.

Great Books for Babies and Toddlers is the first book of its kind—a guide to the best age appropriate children’s books available.

She is an odd little girl in pain who learns self-respect and healing from all three animal characters. The penguin doctor learns that he can help humans in the therapeutic process while helping himself. The dialogue between Petey, the dog, and Lenore is therapeutic, humorous, and touching, leading to an endearing ending.

Book Description
Lucy lies dead in her rocker, but her mind is alive and well! Is she really dead after all or will someone come and save her? Suspended in the mysterious void between life and death, Lucy’s voice guides us through her ninety-seven years of existence in Evansville, Indiana, watching its transformation from cornfields to metropolis. Her vivacious spirit, dry humor, and dogged perseverance animate this intriguing multigenerational story. Traveling back and forth through time, visit her childhood in the lush Indiana countryside of the early 1900s, then follow her as she builds a home in her beloved Evansville. As she unfolds her story, she shares tall tales, family drama, and gentle lessons on how to live life to the fullest, whatever challenges come along. Her ruminating monologue gradually solidifies into pearls of wisdom for every occasion—how to make a marriage last, age gracefully in mind and body, and discover one’s unique destiny. This is a book that soothes the soul whether one is already on the right path or still finding one’s way. Rather than a self-help or religious text, this cozy Christian novel works like a puncture repair kit for battered spirits facing the quintessential problems of modern life.

Book Description
Alexandros, a prince of Macedon, has been a pawn in his parents’ battle for power from his earliest memories. His whole life in the cut-throat world of the royal court has been spent walking the knife edge of their warring demands, balancing his duty to King Philippos’ legacy with his obligations to his mother Olympias and her fierce ambitions, rarely seen as a person in his own right. While tending his horse, he has a chance encounter with Hephaistion, a boy from the back hills who says exactly what he thinks and who sees Alexandros in a way no one else ever has. Hephaistion arrived for training at the Royal Page School in Pella with one goal: to make his father proud. But the maddening boy he unceremoniously meets on Pella’s training fields turns Hephaistion's world upside down. Alexandros is exceptional in every way, and unlike anyone he has ever met before, and their close friendship drags Hephaistion into the world of the royal court where intrigue, infighting, and politics put their lives on the line. Hephaistion is unprepared to find himself so close to the heart of the royal household, and Alexandros is reluctant to put his complete trust in anyone after growing up surrounded by treachery. As they navigate the dangers of the court and the world around them, a relationship born out of chance becomes the foundation of an empire. Their friendship marks the start of a journey beyond the bounds of the world they know, beyond even any world they could imagine, and into legend.

It’s a chance to let the fragile, sheltered boy spend time away from his nervous, overprotective parents, and have the adventure he’s always wanted. But in the lush woods, Lorrie never imagines they are not alone—or that their idyllic trip will soon become a chilling nightmare of survival . . . In one terrifying moment, Davey disappears. The local police find no trace of him, and a desperate Lorrie turns to the one man who can help: FBI agent Stuart Sanders.
