Growing Green
by Christina Goodings & Masumi Furukawa
When you read Genesis, you realize that ecology is a responsibility we’ve been given by God. Even though some go a bit overboard, as believers, we do need to care for the home we now occupy.
"Growing Green" is a fun way to teach our children about taking care of where we live. From appreciating what we have to taking care of our environment, Christina makes learning about caring for our world fun.

Safely Through The Night
by Elena Pasquali & Dubravka Kolanovic
Dreams are sweet and fun sometimes, aren’t they? In "Safely Through The Night" little Emily has one of the most imaginative ones I’ve read yet.
As she snuggles into her bed with Cinnamon Bear and her blanket, Hug, Emily is all ready to drift off. A shooting star flashes in the night sky, and as she falls asleep, a starbeam comes knocking on her bedroom window.
What could it be? As Emily grabs onto it, she and her bedtime companions are swept away into the night sky. Together they roll up the wandering beam, finally ending up at its end.

Candle Discovery Series: Roman Ship Model
My 14 year old son got a peek at this one and is STOKED! I told him I had to review it before I could let him at it, so here we go…
…"Roman Ship Model" is a part of the Candle Discovery Series published by Candle Books. No pun intended, but this is a boatload of information on early ships and water transportation.

Mesi: A Girl ‘n Grace in Africa
by Pam Davis
You may have seen the dolls in Christian bookstores, similar to the American Girl series, but with a most DEFINITELY Godly message. Now, take a peek at a new book series designed to encourage young girls in their faith in Christ, as well as teach them about history and other cultures! Introducing “Girls ‘n Grace” by author Pam Davis!
The first title is “Mesi: A Girl ‘n Grace in Africa” and tells the story of a young girl in Africa who learns that God truly cares about her in every way. Filled with cultural detail and gorgeous illustrations, Mesi (pronounced May-cee) longs to go to school.
Watching as God provides is an inspiration that will motivate young girls to pray and trust God for everything, and to know that sometimes His gifts come in unexpected ways.

Sydney Clair’s Season of Change
by Pam Davis
The second story is "Sydney Clair’s Season of Change" and tells of a young girl’s experience in the days of the Civil Rights Movement, as well as the war protests and how they impact her life. She learns through personal experience how rejection feels, especially when it isn’t fair.
These books are wonderful! The illustrations are gorgeous, and the stories are interactive, encouraging girls to go to the Girls ‘n Grace website and learn more. I’m giving this series five out of five bookmarks, with a world globe as a charm. Learn more about God, a relationship with Him, and cultures world wide!
