  The Journey Continues -...

  Caravan Bear once again hitches up Hector the horse to the brightly painted gypsy-style caravan and, with Whitby the dog and Christopher Rabbit, set off in search of new adventures. Enjoy Rabbit's storytelling from the Old Testament along the way, interrupted with frequent questions from the travellers and other animals they meet. 
  The Animals' Caravan, has echoes of children's classics such as Wind in the Willows and Alice in Wonderland as Rabbit leaves his home to set out on an unexpected journey - a journey to find friendship and make sense of the world around him. He also finds himself on a journey of faith as he and his new friends wrestle with some of the often difficult concepts in the bible, thereby gaining fresh insights and understanding of God's loving involvement and care for the world. 
  The travelling life of the caravan and its occupants provide the opportunity for Rabbit to share these tales with other animals they meet and they join Caravan Bear, Whitby and Hector in listening - and learning from - the stories. He is frequently interrupted by questions from his listeners, the kind of questions any child - or adult - might ask. 
  The real and often humorous events that happen to Rabbit and his friends are mirrored by the stories from the Bible enabling children to realise that the stories have relevance and meaning today.

  The Stranger - Not a Rocket Not...

  The Stranger by Gordon R. Dickson - If the alien space craft was not a rocket ship, what was it? And an even bigger question: should they investigate—or run for their lives!  
  We will not consider the odds involved in their finding the stranger, for the odds were impossible. 
  They came down to rest their tubes on an unnamed planet of a little-known star in the Buckhorn Cluster. Because they were tired from weeks in space, they came in without looking. They circled the planet once and spiraled down to an open patch of sand between two rocky cliffs. Only then did they see the other ship. 
  Jeff Wadley was at the controls and his eyes widened when he saw it. But his fingers did not hesitate on the controls, for a deep-space starship is not the kind of vehicle that can change its mind about landing once it is within half a mile of the ground. He brought the Emerald Girl in smoothly to a stop not five hundred feet from the stranger. Then he sat back. 
  "Dad," he said flatly, into the intercom, "swing the turret!" 
  Peter Wadley, up in the instrument room, had already seen the strange ship, and the heavy twin barrels of the automatic rifles were depressing to cover. Jeff leaned forward to the communicator. 
  "Identify yourself!" The tight beam in Common Code snapped across the little stretch of open sand to the cliff against which the other seemed to nestle. "We are the mining ship Emerald Girl, Earth license, five hundred and eighty-two days out of Arcturus Station. Identify yourself!" 
  There were steps behind Jeff, and Peter Wadley came to stand behind his son's tense back. 
  "Do they answer, Jeff?" 
  "No." 
  "Identify yourself. Identify yourself! Identify yourself!" 
  The angry demand crackled and arced invisibly across the space between both vessels. And there was no answer.

  "Lauren, Aiden, and Ethan finally reach Blooming Glen. They must demolish the enemy's stronghold there before the Calamitous Drake covers their land in eternal darkness. Lauren, Aiden, and Ethan finally found respite for their whole family in the grove surrounding the Wellspring of Life. However, the threat of the Dark One’s forces still looms over the Heathlands, and lighting the tower of Light in Blooming Glen is their only hope of cleansing their land of The Darkness once and for all. While the family plans a surprise attack on the stronghold at Blooming Glen, the Bishop calls forth the Calamitous Drake, a monster forged from the essence of The Darkness in the corrupted heart of the Iron Mountain. In the midst of the battle, the monster scatters the family, leaving Mother, Uncle, and Tye in the hands of Lord Refi’Cul and the evil giant Skull Crusher who aims to make Tye his wife and become the Master of the Heath Wardens. The children must take to the skies to forge a weapon capable of defeating the Calamitous Drake. Will Lauren, Aiden, and Ethan’s faith give them the strength to Demolish the Stronghold?"

  Hidden within the forgotten grove of Sylvana, where herbalists brew elixirs from whispering leaves and wandering bards strum melodies that coax flowers to bloom, healer Elara discovers a kindred spirit in Finn, a bard exiled for songs that reveal too many truths. Their bond, sealed with a potion of moon-kissed petals and a lute string vow, awakens the grove's dormant magic—or risks a blight from jealous wood sprites. As they traverse dew-laced paths and canopy-shaded glens, pursued by echo thieves and floral guardians, Elara's herbal wisdom entwines with Finn's melodic charm, uncovering an ancient grove legend of harmonious bloom. When a silenced lute summons thorned illusions, they must brew their love into an antidote. In the hush of enchanted whispers, where every petal holds a note and every melody stirs the soil, their secret becomes the root that nourishes eternal spring.
