| As
your young readers follow this story,
they count from one little tulip and
two little bluebirds to nine little
girls and ten little boys. Along the
way, all in the story except the children
wish to be different from what they
are. They see the abilities and gifts
of others and envy them. A wise old
owl teaches them that all of nature
is special just as created by God that
means they’re special, too!
They don’t have to be like someone
else, but just to try to be the best
self possible.Details

Tom Meets Mr. Jonah
tells
about a rebellious kitten that thinks
he's big and tough. Disobeying his father,
he gets trapped in a box of fish and
ends up onboard ship with the renowned
rebel, Jonah. During the kitty’s escapade,
he learns that thoughts lead to actions,
actions have consequences, and that
we're responsible for the results of
our actions. He also discovers just
how wonderful second chances can be.
Co-authored by Pat Day-Bivins, it captivates
both children and adults -- especially
the magnificent cat illustrations by
Donna Brooks. |

This
beautiful book tells of a bunny born
with a “Bethlehem star”
on his forehead. Grandfather Josiah
Rabbit explains the star’s origin
to rabbits gathered in the moonlight
and names the baby Gabriel, after the
messenger angel. He tells a fable about
how Jesus first gave the sign to a little
rabbit who faithfully waited with him
in the garden the night before his arrest
and crucifixion. In a note to readers,
the authors ask, “Did this story
really happen? Clue: In real life rabbits
seldom wear bow ties, and old rabbits
almost never walk with canes! Is it
a Bible story? No. This is a Christian
fable. It’s a story from the world
of make-believe, but is based on the
reality that we have a loving, caring
Savior.”
“What a rare and beautiful book!
Seldom does emotion touch you like it
will through the sensitive words of
Pat Day and Philip Dale Smith and the
exquisite, life-like illustrations of
Donna Brooks. This
story should become a family tradition.
We rate it 5-star. .Please. . .get a
copy of this book for your family library.”
Velma Daniels, News Chief, Winter Haven,

| Nighttime
at the Zoo is
based on and includes a lullaby Mr.
Smith’s mother sang to him when he was
a child. It depicts children visiting
a zoo at dusk as many animals prepare
for the night. The music for each song
appears on each appropriate page and
on he back end papers. North Carolina
‘miracle-artist’ Gwen Clifford used
colored pencils to draw the bright,
detailed pictures. An audio tape of
the author reading and singing is available
through the publisher for S&H charge.
It is ideal for 2 - 9 year olds but
the whole family will enjoy it. It just
may become a family bedtime tradition
as it has for many. |

It
was 1945 and WWII had just ended.
Sixteen-year-old Dulcie Delaney and
her twelve-year-old brother Jackie
traveled by train from their coal-mining
hometown in Kentucky to spend the
Thanksgiving holiday with similar-aged
cousins in Tenn. The planned adventure
for the group and neighboring twins
Erik and Anna Gunther was to explore
Rebel Cave.
Legends
about the cave told that it housed
Civil War Confederate soldiers and,
in later years, moonshiners. The young
group of six set out to find relics
that might have been left behind.
Little did they suspect the scope
of the adventures and nature of the
treasures awaiting them in the labyrinth
of passages.
This historical fiction novel helps
young adults and adults gain insights
and understanding about caves, ecology,
the Civil War, day-to-day life following
WWII, teamwork, conflict resolution,
and coping skills for handling fears
and prejudices. The book informs as
well as entertains.
Smith,
an avid spelunker who has major cave
discoveries to his credit, writes
with the authority of one who knows
his caves. The historian/spelunker
blend plus the straightforward, clean
writing style of this father-daughter
writing team makes this book appealing
to middle and high school aged youth
as well as adults.
“Written
in a style reminiscent of the "Nancy
Drew" books or junior novels
of old … also incorporate(s)
a fair amount of history, both of
the Civil War and the post-World War
II setting. --School Library Journal
