A Bus Called Heaven
Author: Bob Graham
Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 1536220957
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
“In a story where every turn is possible, if improbable, Graham makes readers believe. High hopes and busy, vibrant artwork . . . will entice children.” — Booklist (starred review) One morning in front of Stella’s house, an abandoned bus appears, looking sad as a whale on a beach. On its front, held up with packing tape, is a hand-painted sign that says Heaven. Right away, the bus brings change to Stella’s street when people stop to talk about it instead of rushing by. “This bus could be ours,” Stella declares. With a master’s eye for finding the magic in the mundane, Bob Graham creates an encouraging story about community — a whimsical tale about neighbors of all ages and stripes coming together, and about one little girl who comes into her own.

Stella by Starlight
Author: Sharon M. Draper
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1442494999
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Sharon M. Draper presents “storytelling at its finest” (School Library Journal, starred review) in this New York Times bestselling Depression-era novel about a young girl who must learn to be brave in the face of violent prejudice when the Ku Klux Klan reappears in her segregated southern town. Stella lives in the segregated South—in Bumblebee, North Carolina, to be exact about it. Some stores she can go into. Some stores she can’t. Some folks are right pleasant. Others are a lot less so. To Stella, it sort of evens out, and heck, the Klan hasn’t bothered them for years. But one late night, later than she should ever be up, much less wandering around outside, Stella and her little brother see something they’re never supposed to see, something that is the first flicker of change to come, unwelcome change by any stretch of the imagination. As Stella’s community—her world—is upended, she decides to fight fire with fire. And she learns that ashes don’t necessarily signify an end.

Calling Forth the Remnant
Author: Stella M. Paterson
Publisher: Preparing the Way Pub
ISBN: 9781929451210
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
"CALLING FORTH THE REMNANT, By Way of the Cross, by Stella Paterson, is addressed to the Body of Christ; both those who attend church and those who do not. Much heartache and sadness have gone into relating the error which has robbed the Lords Bride of her beauty and purity. The "error" is rooted in the greatest deception of all time, and its disastrous influence has been embraced. Error has been allowed to run rampant and has resulted in widespread, unrecognized apostasy. Following many years of in-depth Bible study, the author presents monumental truths that fly in the face of many accepted teachings. It raises a multitude of questions then gives answers, including references for further research: "Why did Jesus REALLY have to die? What is the new birth, as examined through Scripture? Will we yield to Gods way or continue on our own way? What about topics like 'tithing', 'the Rapture', 'tribulation' and 'Antichrist'? Will we ultimately choose to go the way of the Cross and become a part of the Church triumphant? Are we truly born again or have we been deceived by an 'easy' gospel about an 'easy' Jesus who will take as His Bride those who are yet flesh?"
