    Fun, absorbing novel for children aged 7+ that explores the difference Jesus makes when we don’t fit in. 9-year-old Abigail can’t sing, and she can’t dance. So when her friends start rehearsing a musical performance, Abigail feels very much left out and self-conscious. Isn’t she good at anything? Doesn’t anybody want to be her friend?  Jesus does! When Abigail reads Psalm 139, she realises that Jesus made her wonderfully, just the way she is, so she doesn’t need to worry about not being good at musical things. And when she encounters John 15, Abigail learns that Jesus loves her perfectly and empowers her to be a loving friend, even when others let her down.  As Abigail sees what a wonderful friend Jesus is, it transforms her other friendships—and it ends up transforming the girls’ musical performance too!

    The Apollo 12 moon mission was the second manned mission to the lunar surface, but what made it unique was that all three astronauts on this particular mission were already good friends and navy buddies well before they became astronauts.  This audiobook provides the previously untold story of this mission by those who were actually there in that era, and contains the uncensored, unedited, unfiltered, and previously unreleased interviews with all three of these Apollo 12 astronauts – Commander Charles “Pete” Conrad, Lunar Module Pilot Alan Bean, and Command Module Pilot Richard “Dick” Gordon.  In addition, the interviews with many of the NASA officials of that Apollo-era, are also presented here.  All of these historical figures bring to the public their invaluable and collective recollections of this historic mission in their own words of those kinder gentler days at the pinnacle of America's technological superiority.   The introduction and epilogue was provided by Al Reinert, the Apollo historian and Oscar-nominated documentarian “For All Mankind”, as well the co-screenwriter for the Tom Hanks blockbuster “Apollo 13”.
