In this riveting exploration of one of the Bible’s most iconic stories, Reaching for the Heavens delves into the epic saga of human ambition, pride, and divine intervention. The Tower of Babel, an ancient symbol of mankind’s desire to reach the heavens and become like God, stands as a monument to the dangers of overreaching and the fragile nature of human unity. 
Drawing on historical context, biblical insight, and rich storytelling, this book takes readers on a journey through the rise of the Tower—a colossal effort driven by the people’s collective will to conquer the heavens. But what began as an ambitious feat of engineering and unity soon spirals into confusion and chaos as God intervenes, scattering the people and confusing their languages. 
Through a mix of profound reflections and timeless lessons, Reaching for the Heavens unpacks themes of pride, human folly, the fragility of unity, and the consequences of overstepping divine boundaries. It’s a tale of both human greatness and downfall, and the reminder that, while we may strive to build empires, it is only by the grace of God that we truly stand united. 
Perfect for readers seeking inspiration and insight from ancient stories with modern-day relevance, this book is a powerful call to reflect on the pursuits of power, the need for humility, and the eternal quest to know our place in the vast design of creation. Will we build towers that reach to the heavens, or will we learn to walk humbly in the shadow of a far greater power?

A heartwarming middle-grade debut with autism representation and a musical flair.
		 
Maya lives and breathes musicals. When her chance to finally be a part of the summer musical program at the community theater comes up, Maya is convinced she will get the lead. After all, who knows The Drowsy Chaperone better than she does? However, things don’t turn out exactly the way Maya’s planned, and the summer turns out to be jam-packed with problems: dealing with her best friend’s move, her parents’ busy jobs, and—since her autism diagnosis—the ongoing puzzle of how to be Maya in Public. But perhaps most important of all, Maya has to figure out how to play the part that truly feels like her own.
