Bringing Truck : A Story Of Christmas Magic
$13.95The Bringing Truck is a story of the wonder and happiness of the Christmas season from a child’s point of view. Ordinary delivery trucks become magical providers of Christmas joy in this tale of anticipation. It may bring back memories in all of us who are still children at heart of how really exciting the holiday season was as a child with so many good things and family times together.
As the story begins, Halloween is over, and the children are hoping for some kind of fun or excitement. When a big delivery truck comes to their house, Grace bestows on it the name, “The Bringing Truck”. As she and her brother, Evan, look forward to the holidays, they watch for the Bringing Truck to drop off packages promised by their grandmother. They become impatient as the days grow shorter and wonder if their presents have been lost or forgotten.
When Christmas Eve arrives, they are very downhearted that no presents have yet come. Later in the day, they finally hear the Bringing Truck pulling into the driveway and bringing with it an even greater surprise than they had hoped. The driver turns out to be perhaps more than just a delivery truck driver and leaves them all with a Christmas present they will never forget.

Mrs Bumbleberry And The Ark

She gets that chance at church summer camp, but she’s worried about going.
“Oh Katy, don’t worry,” Mrs. Bumbleberry tells her. “It’s normal to be nervous when you meet new people. Just remember to treat others the way you want to be treated. If you’re nice to them, most people will be nice to you.” She learns the hard way that not all children follow that same philosophy, though. Some of them are bossy and downright mean.
Luckily, there are plenty of other nice children, including Andrea, who she finds out lives down the street from her. Katy and “Andi” become fast friends-and they learn how God told Noah to build the ark. God even sent a rainbow as a message to Noah, and now rainbows remind us that God is watching over us just like he did for Noah.
Join Katy and her friends as they sing songs, make a cardboard ark, color the rainbow, and learn valuable lessons about how to treat others.

Being Thankful
$4.99Join Little Critter as he learns why it’s important to be thankful for what he has-not to be upset about what he doesn’t. Since 1975, Mercer Mayer has been writing and illustrating stories about Little Critter and the antics he stumbles into while growing up. Tommy Nelson is thrilled to bring this beloved brand to the Christian market with the Inspired Kids line of faith-based books featuring Little Critter.
In Being Thankful, Little Critter isn’t getting anything he wants. Gator gets cool brand-new sneakers, while Little Critter is stuck with his boring blue ones. Tiger’s dad has a boat-but not Little Critter’s dad. And even at the ice cream shop, Little Critter can’t enjoy his chocolate ice cream cone because he would rather have a huge ice cream sundae instead. But on a trip to the farm, Grandma shows Little Critter why thankfulness is so important and helps make any situation seem so much happier.
Based on Psalm 107:1, this book will show children what gratitude is and why we should be thankful for all of the blessings God has given us.

Smiles For God From A Sunflower And You
$16.99God’s nature never ceases to amaze! While touring Abraham Lincoln’s boyhood home in Indiana, I took a photograph of sunflowers. When the photograph was developed, its negative showed one flower with a smiley face. I was inspired to write the poem “Divine Reflections.” The poem is condensed and illustrated for children to enjoy. I hope parents will interact with their children as they read the book together, explaining the illustrations and discovering the analogy of being a reflection and having a divine purpose in life. A smile lights up the world. I have watched as senior adults look at a smiling child with expressions of delight on their faces. There is beauty in nature and beauty in children, who are all special creations of God.
In the process of illustrating this book, I included my children and myself as a means of having something to pass on to future generations. It was a “God thing” on my tenth illustration when paint thinner was purposefully splashed on the canvas to make a different background effect; the splashes look like little sunflowers and an image of Jesus’ face appears below the wilting sunflower! See if you can find him!
Thanks to Bishop Lindsey Davis of the Kentucky United Methodist Conference for including my book on his list of the Top Five Recommended Books for the annual conference.

Wonderfully illustrated and written, Rivers’ Walk captures the imagination and encourages hearing-impaired children to embrace and wear their hearing aids. This story was inspired by a very real and very special little girl named Rivers, a student at The Memphis Oral School for the Deaf (MOSD). Located in the Memphis community for more than fifty years and serving families from all over the Mid-South, The Memphis Oral School for the Deaf works to empower deaf children to listen, learn, and talk.

These specialized techniques help the children develop the necessary listening and spoken language skills to become a part of, rather than apart from, a world of sound.

Saint Nicholas : The Real Story Of The Christmas Legend
$10.99Many parents and teachers struggle with how to approach the Saint Nicholas/Santa Claus dilemma. Many deal with this by telling children that the legends surrounding Santa Claus are based on a real, historical figure named Nicholas, a Christian bishop known for his generosity.
This picture book presents a shortened, somewhat fictionalized version of the life of Saint Nicholas, explaining that Nicholas was a servant of God and that, through him, God’s love was reflected to others. The story touches on the ministry of Nicholas and his generous gift of a dowry to three young girls as a response to God’s love in Jesus. And it brings application to our own lives as we, too, respond with grateful hearts to God’s great gift of love to us.Combining museum-quality artwork and family friendly language, this book clearly articulates how God showered His love upon us through Christ and helps children see that our own gift-giving is a grateful response to the sacrificial gift of God’s Son.
