I’ve talked about how I don’t like bugs before. I knew that having two little boys was raising the threat levels that I would be forced to deal with bugs at some point in the future. I was hopeful that my sons would never really know how much Mommy does not like bugs. But apparently…

Shades of Morning: A Novel
I think this is different than any other piece of Christian fiction that I’ve ever read. Not that I read this genre excessively, mind you. But it is different. Shades of Morning, by Marlo Schalesky is about a lady named Marnie who is running away from a past. As the book unfolds, we learn more…
Travels with Gannon and Wyatt
I mentioned in my post after BEA that I picked up a copy of Travels with Gannon and Wyatt: Botswana (which releases in June of this year) at their booth. I spoke with their mother, and the author of this book, Patti Wheeler at the Expo and was sold on the concept in very short…
Books on Screen: Stranger in the Woods
You might be aware of the book Stranger in the Woods. The photography of Carol R. Sams II and Jean Stoick, a husband and wife team, is striking, to be sure. Their books are referred to as “A Photographic Fantasy” and indeed they are! These two photographers love nature in the woods and their books…
What God Really Thinks About Women
I saw a copy of What God Really Thinks About Women: Finding Your Significance Through the Women Jesus Encountered at the Book Expo and was curious to find out what it was about. So I was delighted to have it land in my mailbox where I could read it and peruse at length. I should…
Picture Books for America’s Birthday

Summer at Tiffany
As I mentioned, I received a copy of Summer at Tiffany in our bags that we were given at the Book Blogger Conference in New York. The cover art captured my attention right away and when I flipped the book over to read the back cover, I was sold! Set in New York City in…
Children’s Classics Mystery Challenge – June
Well, it’s finally here! It’s the end of the Children’s Classics Mystery Challenge. What did you think? Did you have fun with it? I know I had a great time re-reading some old friends of mine and I’m glad to have spent a little time in my past. Children’s Classic mysteries really encouraged me to…
Life With Maisy
We’ve talked about our love of Maisy Mouse around here before. In our house, we love this simple, yet bold little creature and have enjoyed reading many of her stories. My son began enjoying Maisy when he was just around two years old and we still enjoy a good visit with Maisy every now and…
Mailbox Monday – the BEA edition!
As I think most of you know, Jennifer and I attended the Book Expo and Book Blogger Convention in New York City this past week. When we were in New York, hobnobbing with other book bloggers, we discovered a wonderful meme called Mailbox Monday which is hosted by The Printed Page which we thought would…
