Welcome to the land of magic and fantasy! This is the second issue of the series Bedtime Stories That Will Make You Wake Up. These are a few short tales for moms, dads, grandparents, grandmothers … and for all those who still maintain the magic of telling stories to children. Reading or telling stories to children is a habit that, unfortunately, is uncommon in our day among parents and grandparents, a delicious scene that was buried under the weight of the television, mobile phones, and computers. Today we are so overwhelmed that there is no time to read a bedtime story. But the simple act of reading a story to children at night is more than an activity to lull them: it has great benefits such as encouraging reading, strengthening their imagination, and creating bonds of affection between parents and children, or grandparents and grandchildren. With reading, the child’s talents will develop, while he acquires ethical knowledge and values provided by the stories being told. Thank you for maintaining this magical custom and for choosing this storybook as a tool to achieve that end.

Jack And The Fantastical Circus
Original price was: $24.95.$15.97Current price is: $15.97.Add to cartVirtue? What’s that? And where can I find it?
On a trip to see his granddad, ten-year-old Jack falls asleep while his dad explains virtue. Suddenly he wakes up on a Circus Train! Led through each fantastical train car by the Ringleader, Reno, Jack comes face to face with a huge lion, flying flame torches, a silly juggler, daring tightrope walker, and other memorable circus performers who have spent years cultivating a particular virtue for their acts! Jack and the Fantastical Circus shows children that virtue is ultimately found inside of each and every one of us, but it takes practice and dedication to grow them for our different walks of life.
Authors Ariel and Michael Tyson explain, “Virtue is something within you, but it’s like a muscle. You have to keep practicing it to help it grow strong. We want to teach kids this by showing them the distinct characters of the book and how they relate to areas where they may need to grow in their own lives.”
Jack and the Fantastical Circus will encourage children to explore their imaginations, learn critical lessons, and strive for virtue in themselves. It should also inspire meaningful conversations between parents and children about the importance of virtue.

Who God Says He Is
$34.99Add to cartIf you’ve spent any amount of time around children, you know that little humans like to read, watch, and listen to things on repeat. From singing silly songs for hours on end to watching the same movie 100 times, or asking for the same bedtime story for the 12th night in a row. Most parents will tell you that whatever their kids have on repeat gets stuck in their heads as well . . . and that’s not always a good thing. What if, instead of silly songs, children and their parents had Biblical truths stuck in their head?
The hope for this book is that it will teach children the truth of who God is while simultaneously encouraging the adults who read to them. The world around us constantly feeds us lies about who God is (or isn’t), and who we are (or aren’t). This book is meant to replace those lies with beautiful truths from the Bible, and empower people to live abundant lives as a result.
Children who are struggling to fit in will learn that God is the most faithful of friends. Teenagers navigating a multitude of changes in their world will know that God is unchanging from day to day. Parents searching for the right words to say to their children will be reminded that God is the source of all wisdom, and they can seek Him in moments of need. May God bless this book, and its readers of all ages!
Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable–if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy–dwell on these things.
Philippians 4:8

In the tradition of Wonder and Out of My Mind, this big-hearted middle grade debut tells the story of an irrepressible girl with cerebral palsy whose life takes an unexpected turn when she moves to a new town.
Ellie’s a girl who tells it like it is. That surprises some people, who see a kid in a wheelchair and think she’s going to be all sunshine and cuddles. The thing is, Ellie has big dreams: She might be eating Stouffer’s for dinner, but one day she’s going to be a professional baker. If she’s not writing fan letters to her favorite celebrity chefs, she’s practicing recipes on her well-meaning, if overworked, mother.
But when Ellie and her mom move so they can help take care of her ailing grandpa, Ellie has to start all over again in a new town at a new school. Except she’s not just the new kid–she’s the new kid in the wheelchair who lives in the trailer park on the wrong side of town. It all feels like one challenge too many, until Ellie starts to make her first-ever friends. Now she just has to convince her mom that this town might just be the best thing that ever happened to them!
