Book Description
Transcending its time and period, this moving and lyrical story, beautifully illustrated, explores the fear and hope of children in time of war. I am just a child. How can I be at war? It’s 1918, and war is everywhere. John’s father is fighting in the trenches far away in France, while his mother works in a menacing munitions factory just along the road. His teacher says that John is fighting, too, that he is at war with enemy children in Germany who seem to be much like him. One day, in the wild woods outside town, John has an impossible moment: a dreamlike meeting with a German boy named Jan. John catches a glimpse of a better world, in which children like Jan and himself can one day scatter the seeds of peace. David Almond brings his ineffable sensibility to a poignant and ultimately hopeful tale of the effects of war on children, interwoven with David Litchfield’s gorgeous black-and-white illustrations.

The War Is Over

Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1617391921
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The man was on a mission and someone was going to get some news. Each person in the little cluster braced themselves in their own way; the message was for one of them. As the runner came around the last descending bend on Jordan's west bank, they could identify him as Benjamin, from the house of Heis, twenty-seven miles away, near Bethany. Benjamin is used to delivering messages, and in this case he has been hired by two sisters to find Jesus, and deliver their message that Lazarus is sick. But when Jesus sends him back with a return message, everyone, including Benjamin is surprised. Why would Jesus wait three days to come when the situation is so dire? The answer is in the miraculous raising of Lazarus after being four days dead. But his living proof of Jesus's divinity sparks an evil plot by the Pharisees to do away with not only Lazarus, but Jesus himself, and soon Lazarus and his whole family must embark on a journey they never anticipated. They will meet inspiring characters, learn of Jesus's love and provision, and discover the ultimate truths of life. Join author Mike and Dianne Heintzeman for an incredible odyssey of faith, hope, and love in Stonehouse: The War is Over.
