  Author Ruth Sawyer, 1937 Newbery Medal recipient, penned her last book, Daddles, in 1964. Daddles delightfully captures the innocence of childhood as a brother and sister fall in love with a plain hound dog during their summer vacations in Maine. Though owned by the “meanest, dirtiest and most shiftless family in Haddock Harbor,” the young siblings “adopt” Daddles for two glorious summers. The intelligent, endearing hound dog wins the hearts of all as he joins in with capturing a thief, escaping a house fire, and dodging trouble at a local circus. All dog lovers will warmly embrace this book that rekindles the memories of the tenderness only a child and dog can share.

  The following story is taken from St. John 14: 1-31. 
  One evening, as the disciples gathered with Jesus in the upper room of a humble dwelling, a sense of anticipation filled the air. They knew that their time together was ending, and they longed to hear the words of wisdom and comfort that their beloved teacher had to impart to them. 
  Jesus looked at his disciples with compassion and love, knowing the trials and tribulations that lay ahead for them. He spoke to them with words of comfort and reassurance, reminding them of the eternal truths that would sustain them in the days to come. 
  "Do not let your hearts be troubled," Jesus said, his voice gentle and reassuring. "Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."
