Sinopse

Every stitch tells a storyStitched Together invites readers to journey with the narrator as she pursues a secret wish—to add a square to her church’s special anniversary quilt. She ponders the faith practices of her church community that are important to her and learns from her grandmother’s quilting circle about the history of their faith. Together with her church community, the young girl discovers the rich tapestry of stories woven into each quilt square and the power of shared stories. Stitched Together is a delightful tale of tradition, friendship, and the joy of making something meaningful together.  This book celebrates the 500th anniversary of Anabaptism. A church’s anniversary quilting project allows readers to discover Anabaptists from around the world today. With illustrations by award-winning artist Kate Cosgrove and text by beloved children’s author Aimee Reid, this picture book invites intergenerational reading—with older members of congregations and families sharing their memories with those who are younger. And it makes space for the voices of those who will become the new leaders of the Anabaptist tradition. Suggested reading for ages 5–9.

Read about the amazing adventures of Harry Alliss. The central character is Harry, a young boy with several strong female mentors who add zest to his various adventures. Get to know Harry's amazing friends and their magical, fantastical and sometimes dramatic adventures together, but always with a connection towards strong family relationships, values and those special bonds of friendship. Harry may be flying in space or sitting in a doctor's waiting room but the adventures just keep happening to him. Learn about amazing things that you may have never heard of but that existed at some time. Unravel some of the words in the book to make the stories even more fun. Share Harry's journey and enjoy the fabulous and exciting world of Harry Alliss. The basis for the stories is as a bedtime read, although it shouldn't be restricted to only bedtime reading as they can be read at any time. The stories are sequential, so they should be read from the beginning to the end as several characters are introduced during the various adventures. The central themes are rooted in what is around us and what may have occurred or happened in the past or present, including physical items that may have existed before. The idea is to ask questions and interact with the storytelling. The stories have the 'cuddle factor' so that adults reading to their children can enjoy the story as much as the children who are listening to it.

Melba the Camel knew that a best friend would make him very happy; someone who would accept him as he was and help him to become who he should be. Melba loved his family and his brothers and sisters that he played with out on the great plains, but he realized that he did not have a best friend who would accept him and stand beside him in every situation. Melba also believed that his best friend was real; he only had to find him.Melba Finds a Friend is a warm and touching story of Melba the Camel's quest to find his best friend, which is similar to our own longing to find someone very special to us. He visits many of the other animals that live in the reserve of Kruger National Park in Africa, inviting each of them to be his best friend, but each of them declines Melba's sincere invitation for personal reasons they share.Melba finally visits Mr. Crocodile who is refreshing himself in the small river that runs along the edge of the great plains, and who shares with Melba wise words that a best friend is very hard to find; that you can't really find a best friend, but often they just appear and when they do we recognize them immediately.Perhaps we are in a similar situation like Melba, searching for a best friend. Then we should heed Mr. Crocodiles wisdom and be on the look-out for our best friend to appear.
