  Pregnant. Shunned. Heartbroken. This is Eirene's true story of how she left the Amish. Like most Amish children, Eirene had a carefree childhood in a tight-knit family life in the Old Order Amish community where she grew up in Indiana. Though she had no indoor plumbing, no electricity, and no modern conveniences, her young life was full of joy. Horseback riding, reading, working with her father, and singing while making noodles and quilts with her sisters filled her days as she grew up.  
  When Eirene becomes pregnant and marries at the tender age of 17, the harsh reality of her new life sets in. From getting snowed in by 10 feet of snow to carrying icy buckets of water inside just to make coffee or wash dishes, Eirene remains steadfast in providing the best care she can for her son. As she has four more children, her world revolves around them, and they bring her more joy than she could have ever imagined. Though she loves being a mother, and she loves her family, Eirene knows there has to be more to life than just being a housewife confined to her home with no money, no phone, and no transportation. Doesn’t God have a bigger purpose for her? Wasn’t she meant for more? When Eirene makes a Christian friend, she is hungry to learn more about the loving God who died for her and rose again, a God so unlike the one she’d learned about growing up Amish.

  Dedicated to the bees and blooms who keep our world alive. 
  Location: France, Europe 
  Set in the golden meadows of the French countryside, this story follows Amélie, a small honeybee with uneven wings and a big heart. Amélie longs to find her own waggle dance - a special dance bees use to guide their hive to nectar - but feels out of place when her attempts fall short. With her best friend, the adventurous drone Bastien, Amélie sets out to discover her unique dance. 
  Along the way, they meet a series of meadow creatures - a beetle, a butterfly, a hummingbird, and a snail - each teaching Amélie a lesson about confidence, grace, patience, and rhythm. Slowly, she begins to weave these lessons together, guided by the harmony of the meadow. 
  Amélie’s journey culminates when she returns to the hive and performs a dance like no other - slower and softer but clear and true. Her dance leads the bees to a hidden field of nectar-rich blooms, and the meadow comes alive as pollination spreads far and wide. Through her quest, Amélie discovers that true belonging comes not from copying others but from embracing her own way of contributing to the hive and the world.

  Johnny and his friends are typical teenagers in central Pennsylvania. They go to school, have after-school jobs, and spend their free time fishing and hanging out. They share a unique experience that bonds them in a way most teenagers wouldn't understand—their friend Jimmy was killed a year ago by a ghost. Now Jimmy is back, and he needs their help. 
  Johnny, Buck, and the rest of the gang go back to where it all began: a small cave nestled in the mountains. There, they must solve the case of a missing ghost, and who would want to take their remains. They quickly learn that this goes beyond a simple mystery—they might be able to pull off the impossible and break Jimmy’s curse. They just have to be careful not to lose another friend in the process. 
  This fast-paced, whodunit adventure will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final page.
