  Henry And The Chalk Dragon

  $8.99

  In the town of Squashbuckle, just about anything can happen, and when Henry Penwhistle draws a mighty Chalk Dragon on his door, the dragon does what Henry least expects–it runs away. Now Henry’s art is out in the world for everyone to see, and it’s causing trouble for him and his schoolmates Oscar and Jade. If they don’t stop it, the entire town could be doomed! To vanquish the threat of a rampaging Chalk Dragon, Sir Henry Penwhistle, Knight of La Muncha Elementary School, is going to have to do more than just catch his art–he’s going to have to let his imagination run wild. And THAT takes bravery.

  Maybe God Is Like That Too

  $16.99

  Every child wonders where God lives or what God is like. In “Maybe God Is Like That Too”, a young boy asks his grandma where God is in their city. She invites him to pay attention to where he sees the fruit of the Spirit. Where love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are, there too is God. The boy sees God in the kindness of a doorman holding the door for a man using a wheelchair, in the patience of his teacher helping him tie his shoes, and in the love, faithfulness, and gentleness of his grandma. An ordinary day in his city opens this young boy’s eyes to God’s Spirit at work all around him “Schipper’s cheerful, screenprintlike artwork capably evokes the energy of a moderately gritty, moderately diverse cityscape.” – Publishers Weekly “Highly recommended for family, preschool, elementary school, Sunday School, and community library picture book collections.” – Midwest Book Review “A wonderful story to help illustrate the humanity of Christ Jesus as told to us in Philippians.” – Katie Barrett Todd, Union Presbyterian Seminary alumna, writer for Lectionary Links. “Maybe God Is Like That Too” is a 2017 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards winner-a contest intended to bring increased recognition to exemplary children’s books and their creators, and to support childhood literacy and life-long reading. “Maybe God Is Like That Too” has been selected as a finalist in the 2017 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards.
