Book Description
Our Christian scriptures are clear - we are not simply incarnated souls. We are living bodies. And our physical existence is God's perfect will. However, many Christians today lack an embodiment of their faith. Story and Stretch: Narrative Yoga for Kids offers a framework in which to explore scriptural truths through body movement. The ten Story and Stretch lesson plans included in this book combine Old Testament stories with the healing practice of yoga, to offer children of all ages the opportunity to experience their bodies as sacred places to dialogue with God. Each lesson contains a different breathing practice, mindfulness activity, Old Testament story, sequence of yoga poses designed to recreate the story, suggestions for relaxation time, and discussion questions. Story and Stretch was created by Michel Le Gribble-Dates, mother, certified yoga instructor, and former Director of Children's Ministries. I love using Story and Stretch as a fun way to teach Bible Stories through movement, practicing mindfulness, and listening to God! The kids love the challenge and enjoy the exercise. -Angela Grover, Director of Christian Education I have seen children, youth, and adults engage with scripture in a new way, explore and wonder about our faith stories, and confidently retell the story. I find it to the perfect way to help children get their hearts, minds, and bodies ready for a night of VBS. -Charlotte Allbright, Director of Christian Formation and Education At the end of meditating, I feel like I have a fresh start. -Jayden, 2nd grader To anyone who is considering a Story and Stretch Teaching Workshop, do it! I now have a greater understanding of what programs I would love to see taught to every child. I also know now I can teach children yoga and have started to teach my grandkids. Thank you, once again, Michel for sharing your wealth of knowledge. -Christine Bickal

Book Description
Can you stretch to the ceiling? Can you stretch to the floor? You can stretch with a whisper, you can stretch with a roar! Doreen Cronin and Scott Menchin give new meaning to the yoga pose downward facing dog as publishing’s most energetic pooch explores the many, many ways a kid can get limber. More than simple toe touching, this pup stretches to ride a breeze, grab a snack from a tree, catch a wave. His bubble gum even gets in on the stretching action. POP! And he reminds us not to forget that we also need to stretch our imaginations (recognize that statue, anyone?). This interactive, energetic rhyming text will also help parents stretch out reading time with their youngsters.

Book Description
In this “compelling, bighearted, emotionally precise page-turner” (Sunday Times), the New York Times bestselling writer and acclaimed television host explores the aftermath of a tragedy on a small-town to illuminate the shame and longing that can flow through generations—and how the secrets of the heart cannot stay be buried forever. It is 1987 and a small Irish community is preparing for a wedding. The day before the ceremony, a group of young friends, including the bride and groom, are involved in an accident. Three survive. Three are killed. The lives of the families are shattered and the rifts between them ripple throughout the small town. Connor survived, but living among the angry and the mourning is almost as hard as carrying the shame of having been the driver. He leaves the only place he knows for another life, taking his secrets with him. Travelling first to Liverpool, then London, he eventually makes a home—of sorts—for himself in New York, where he finds shelter and the possibility of forging a new life. But the secrets—the unspoken longings and regrets that have come to haunt those left behind—will not be silenced. Before long, Connor will have to confront his past. A powerful and timely novel of emigration and return, Home Stretch demonstrates Norton’s keen understanding of the power of stigma and secrecy—and their devastating effect on ordinary lives.

Book Description
Wall Street Journal Bestseller A groundbreaking approach to succeeding in business and life, using the science of resourcefulness. We often think the key to success and satisfaction is to get more: more money, time, and possessions; bigger budgets, job titles, and teams; and additional resources for our professional and personal goals. It turns out we’re wrong. Using captivating stories to illustrate research in psychology and management, Rice University professor Scott Sonenshein examines why some people and organizations succeed with so little, while others fail with so much. People and organizations approach resources in two different ways: “chasing” and “stretching.” When chasing, we exhaust ourselves in the pursuit of more. When stretching, we embrace the resources we already have. This frees us to find creative and productive ways to solve problems, innovate, and engage our work and lives more fully. Stretch shows why everyone—from executives to entrepreneurs, professionals to parents, athletes to artists—performs better with constraints; why seeking too many resources undermines our work and well-being; and why even those with a lot benefit from making the most out of a little. Drawing from examples in business, education, sports, medicine, and history, Scott Sonenshein advocates a powerful framework of resourcefulness that allows anybody to work and live better.
