Sinossi

In "Bob Chester's Grit; Or, From Ranch to Riches," Frank V. Webster crafts an engaging narrative that encapsulates the quintessential American spirit of perseverance and self-reliance. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, this rags-to-riches tale follows the eponymous protagonist, Bob Chester, as he navigates the trials and tribulations of ranch life while aspiring for greatness. Webster's accessible prose and vivid descriptions transport readers to a world of sweeping landscapes and hard-won triumphs, evocative of the period's popular literature that celebrated individualism and ambition amidst adversity. Frank V. Webster, a prolific author notable for his work in children'Äôs and young adult literature, often showcased themes of determination and moral integrity in his writings. His experiences growing up in a rural setting likely informed his depiction of Bob Chester, reflecting the values of hard work and resilience that define American culture. Webster'Äôs understanding of youth and ambition resonates throughout the narrative, making it relatable to aspiring dreamers from various backgrounds. I highly recommend "Bob Chester's Grit" to readers seeking an inspiring story of ambition and grit. This novel will not only entertain but also motivate readers to pursue their dreams, exemplifying that success often stems from unwavering determination and the courage to confront life'Äôs challenges.

    With The Prince’s Poison Cup, Dr. R.C. Sproul continues his series of books designed to present deep biblical truths to children on their own level. In this work, he focuses in on the atonement to show that Jesus had to endure the curse of sin in order to redeem His people from their spiritual death.When Ella gets sick and has to take yucky medicine, she wonders why something that will help her get well has to taste so bad. When she puts the question to Grandpa, he tells her the story of a great King and His subjects who enjoyed wonderful times together―until the people rebelled against the King and drank from a forbidden well. To their horror, they found that the beautiful water in the well made their hearts turn to stone. To reclaim His people, the King asks His Son, the Prince, to drink from a well of horrid poison. The poison will surely kill the Prince―but He is willing to drink it to please His Father and help His people.Richly illustrated, The Prince’s Poison Cup will help children appreciate the great love of God for His people and the awful price Jesus had to pay because of sin. A “For Parents” section provides assistance in unfolding the biblical elements of the story.

    This sensitive and often humorous book tells the story of an adolescent boy who begins to find himself after the people he has always depended on let him down. Alone. That’s how thirteen-year-old Justin feels these days. His older brother Duane has left home, enlisting in the Army, and his father has walked out, maybe for good this time. His mom is too depressed to get out of bed, much less pay the bills and keep food in the refrigerator. And if that’s not enough, his best buddy Ben has a new girlfriend and no longer has time to hang out. There’s not much left for Justin to do but to put his brain in neutral and slide into the state he calls “the Big Nothing.” But slowly Justin discovers he has more resources than he thinks. With the help of his classmate Jemmie and her grandmother, Nana Grace, he learns that underneath all the noisy confusion in his brain lies a talent for music. As he spends time with Jemmie, he begins to understand how simple notes make complex music, and how simple feelings can turn into deep emotions. Award-winning author Adrian Fogelin once again offers readers an emotionally charged story featuring a sympathetic adolescent trying to make sense of the people and world around him.
