In "The Y. M. C. A. Boys on Bass Island: or, The Mystery of Russabaga Camp," Brooks Henderley crafts a compelling narrative that intertwines adventure and camaraderie among a group of young boys involved in the Young Men's Christian Association. Set against the backdrop of Bass Island, the story deftly combines elements of mystery with themes of friendship, courage, and moral decision-making, all rendered in Henderley's engaging prose that appeals to both youthful readers and adults alike. The period detail captures the essence of early 20th-century outdoor experiences, spotlighting the importance of community engagement and the youth movement prevalent in that era. Brooks Henderley, noted for his keen understanding of youth culture and outdoor education, draws upon his own formative experiences to imbue the narrative with authenticity. His background in community service and educational advocacy informs the book's underlining themes of personal growth through teamwork and adventure. Through these young boys' challenges and triumphs, Henderley captures the transformative power of nature and fellowship. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in children's literature that tackles deeper moral lessons cloaked in thrilling escapades.

    “My high-energy toddler twins are asleep in 15 minutes. Bedtime used to take nearly 2 hours—but with Rocket’s calming narration and the beautiful stories from the Yawnimals box set, our nights have totally transformed. They YAWN on cue when Rocket YAWNS, and they’re asleep before the story ends.”     - Heather Schalk, Toddler Toolkit Podcast, Mother of 2 toddlers 
    “Their favorites are Amanda the Panda (they love the journey), Benny the Bear (truly magical for relaxation), and Lincoln the Lizard (hello, Monster Trucks!).” 
    “The stories are soothing, my toddlers love the illustrations, and this is now our must-have bedtime ritual. I can’t recommend this enough—it’s a total lifesaver for tired parents.”

    In The Lightlings, Dr. R.C. Sproul weaves an allegorical tale that captures the essence of the biblical story of redemption in a manner that will fascinate and delight children. A race of tiny beings known as lightlings are a picture of humanity as they pass through all the stages of the biblical drama – creation, fall, and redemption. In the end, children will understand why some people fear light more than darkness, but why they need never fear darkness again.The Lightlings is an excellent introduction to the key themes of Scripture. Richly detailed illustrations by Justin Gerard will hold children’s interest, and discussion questions with Scripture references in the back will help parents guide children into the deeper meaning of the story.
