Synopsis

In "The Boy Scouts of the Geological Survey," Robert Shaler intricately weaves an engaging narrative that marries adventure with scientific exploration. Through the eyes of a group of young scouts, Shaler captures the spirit of curiosity and camaraderie in the natural world, all while grounding the story in the rich context of early 20th-century geology. The prose is both accessible and informative, seamlessly embedding geological principles within thrilling exploits, thus appealing to both young readers and those interested in environmental science. Robert Shaler, a distinguished geologist and educator, brings his extensive knowledge of earth sciences to this work, seamlessly integrating his passion for geology with a love for storytelling. His experiences in the field and his dedication to educating future generations about the wonders of nature undoubtedly influenced his writing. Shaler'Äôs aim was not only to entertain but to inspire a deeper appreciation for geology and the environment among youth, showcasing the intersection of scientific inquiry and adventure. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Boy Scouts of the Geological Survey" to readers of all ages. This book serves as a delightful introduction to geology, making complex concepts relatable through engaging storytelling and vivid descriptions. It is an essential read for young adventurers and budding scientists, encouraging them to explore the world around them with curiosity and respect.

    Of Withered Apples by Philip K. Dick 
    Something was tapping on the window. Blowing up against the pane, again and again. Carried by the wind. Tapping faintly, insistently. 
    Lori, sitting on the couch, pretended not to hear. She gripped her book tightly and turned a page. The tapping came again, louder and more imperative. It could not be ignored. 
    "Darn!" Lori said, throwing her book down on the coffee table and hurrying to the window. She grasped the heavy brass handles and lifted. 
    For a moment the window resisted. Then, with a protesting groan, it reluctantly rose. Cold autumn air, rushed into the room. The bit of leaf ceased tapping and swirled against the woman's throat, dancing to the floor 
    Lori picked the leaf up. It was old and brown. Her heart skipped a beat as she slipped the leaf into the pocket of her jeans. Against her loins the leaf cut and tingled, a little hard point piercing her smooth skin and sending exciting shudders up and down her spine. She stood at the open window a moment, sniffing the air. The air was full of the presence of trees and rocks, of great boulders and remote places. It was time—time to go again. She touched the leaf. She was wanted. 
    Quickly Lori left the big living-room, hurrying through the hall into the dining-room. The dining-room was empty. A few chords of laughter drifted from the kitchen. Lori pushed the kitchen door open. "Steve?" 
    Her husband and his father were siting around the kitchen table, smoking their cigars and drinking steaming black coffee. "What is it?" Steve demanded, frowning at his young wife. "Ed and I are in the middle of business." 
    "I—I want to ask you something." 
    The two men gazed at her, brown-haired Steven, his dark eyes full of the stubborn dignity of New England men, and his father, silent and withdrawn in her presence. Ed Patterson scarcely noticed her. He rustled through a sheaf of feed bills, his broad back turned toward her.

    God loves kids, and his really good plan is for kids to grow up in loving families with everything they need to be safe, happy, and whole. But the brokenness in the world has caused really big problems in some families. Because God loves these families, he provides people to help them, as well as foster families to welcome the kids who need safe and loving homes. How can we help young kids--kids in foster families, kids in foster care, or kids simply learning--to understand foster care in a gentle and biblical way?

Beginning with God's initial plan for kids and families, the story introduces, with compassion and sensitivity, the challenges that bring about the need for foster care, what it looks like for foster families to show up for kids, and the different feelings everyone involved in foster care may experience. The book ends where it begins, with the promise that God has a good plan for the kids he loves.  
           
    This unique resource helps children understand foster care and how they can trust God and his good plan to redeem every single story.

    “My purpose, and the intention behind my books, is to guide others from the very beginning to look within themselves and embrace their unique selves and authenticity. We need to become aware and reflect on our own inner child and heal ourselves in order to raise our next generation with love, free of our expectations and demands of society. When we do this, we break free from the chains of our own upbringing and societal programming allowing our children to become their authentic selves unapologetically, and we as parents find who we truly are among the process.”
