Baker Publishing Group Let Justice Roll Down
Book SynopsisHis brother died in his arms, shot by a deputy marshal. He was beaten and tortured by the sheriff and state police. But through it all, he returned good for evil, love for hate, and progress for prejudice, and he brought hope to black and white alike. The story of John Perkins is a gripping portrayal of what happens when faith thrusts a person into the midst of a struggle against racism, oppression, and injustice. It is about the costs of discipleship--the jailings, the floggings, the despair, the sacrifice. And it is about the transforming work of faith that allowed John to respond to such overwhelming indignities with miraculous compassion, vision, and hope. Perhaps more now than ever, young people need to read his story. This youth edition of the book Christianity Today named as one of the top fifty books that have shaped evangelicals will inspire a new generation to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God in the face of radical social change.

Zondervan A Night of Great Joy
Book SynopsisNew York Times bestselling illustrator Mary Engelbreit presents A Night of Great Joy---a delightful picture book that celebrates the season and tells the story of the nativity through the performance of the children’s Christmas pageant.Trade ReviewA classic Sunday School Christmas pageant is acted out by a multiethnic cast of children in this Christmas offering in Englebreit's signature illustration style.The pageant begins with a little black girl as an angel reading the passage from Luke that announces that Jesus has been born. The text describes the traditional Nativity story as though a narrator were reading it, with the child performers coming on stage in costume as the story progresses. Mary is an Asian girl, and Joseph is a white boy with red hair and a fake brown beard. One of the wise men is black, and a chorus of angels includes several children of color. The children are dressed in charming costumes with appropriate details, and there are funny little incidents tucked into the illustrations, such as two shepherd girls playing tug of war with a toy sheep and a tiny cow asleep on stage at the conclusion. The girl playing the part of Mary uses a rag doll for baby Jesus, and the final page shows Mary hugging her doll tenderly under the shining star. Though almost every Christian Sunday school puts on a Christmas pageant, there are few picture books that cover this annual holiday event, especially titles accessible to preschoolers. Children preparing to be in a pageant will enjoy this, as will Engelbreit's many adult fans. (Picture book. 3-6) * Kirkus *An elementary-school Christmas pageant plays out with warm humor in Engelbreit’s (The Night Before Christmas) holiday offering. The author’s cherubic characters perform the Nativity story using rudimentary props that will trigger smiles: a robed Joseph with a comically fake beard pulls Mary in a red wagon outfitted with a donkey head, a rocking horse and a rubber duck keep watch in the stable, the newborn Jesus is a rag doll, and stuffed animals fill in for sheep. The narrative is a straightforward, pared-down version of the biblical tale, without dialogue, which leaves the pictures to showcase the children’s personalities (two shepherds fight over a toy lamb, a prima donna’s antics irk her fellow angels, and a costumed cow falls asleep as the Wise Men arrive). The Nativity tale is one of great things born out of humble circumstances, a theme that dovetails perfectly with the homespun staging of the children’s production. Starred review on 10/1/16. * Publishers Weekly *On the title-page spread, a diverse group of children and their families enter a building hung with a large banner proclaiming “Christmas Pageant.” The rest of the book presents the traditional play as it unfolds on stage. The narration offers a simply worded version of the biblical story, following Mary and Joseph through Bethlehem to the stable where the child is born. Angels appear to the shepherds, who make their way to the stable, followed by the wise men. All kneel to worship the infant. Though there are no surprises in the text, the illustrations include a few unexpected and charming additions. Mary rides around Bethlehem in a little red wagon; the baby looks a lot like Raggedy Andy; and two shepherds have a tug-of- war struggle over a toy lamb. With the spotlight on the rounded forms of rosy-cheeked, costumed kids drawn in Engelbreit’s signature style, this colorful picture book will please her adult fans while holding the interest of many children. --- Carolyn Phelan * Booklist *

''Twas?the Evening of Christmas? Snuggle Time series? Love Letters from God series Trade ReviewIn a skillfully composed text that mimics the phrasing and cadence of Clement C. Moore's familiar holiday poem, Nellist presents a Nativity story that balances a lighthearted, anticipatory tone with an overarching reverence for the subject matter. 'and thinsp;'Twas the evening of Christmas, when all through the town,/Every inn was so crowded, no room could be found,' she begins, incorporating the animals of the stable, the nearby shepherds, and the visiting Magi into her retelling ('The pigeons were nestled all snug in their beds,/ While visions of breadcrumbs danced 'round in their heads'). Russian illustrator Selivanova's evocative paintings feature soft lines and gentle shifts between sunlight, moonglow, starlight, and shadow--as well as light that seems to emanate from the newborn child. Her gauzy, muted palette and shifting perspectives (in one scene, the shepherds are seen from above, through clusters of angels' wings) fully immerse readers in the unfolding events.

Through daily reflections, Caroline shows that it is possible and even essential to have a relationship with God. * Ted Hurley, Coordinator of English Pastoral Services with the Archdiocese of Ottawa-Cornwall *Caroline Pignat has prepared a wonderful reflection on God's love for all people, inviting young people to take a closer look at the riches of our faith tradition. She includes words of wisdom from Sacred Scripture, saints, and gems from magisterial teaching. Caroline accompanies young people as they ponder their relationship with God, encouraging them to know how much God loves them and showing them how they were created to love, know, and serve God. This text is an excellent resource for anyone involved in youth ministry. * Josephine Lombardi, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Systematic and Pastoral Theology, Director of Lay Spiritual Formation, St. Augustine’s Seminary *Caroline Pignat takes the daily trials and tribulations of life and helps the reader realize that God is there for us, so we are never alone. Through prayers, reflections, and Scripture, we see that God wants us to be a messenger for his love. All I Am is a must read for teens trying to figure out who they are and where they fit into this world, providing both inspiration and hope for anyone working through the messiness of faith during their developmental years. * Tom D’Amico, Director of Education, Ottawa Catholic School Board *Caroline Pignat's mastery as a writer, expertise as an educator, and rich relationship with God have converged in this superb tool for teens. Insightful and practical, All I Am invites readers to encounter a close and loving God who shows them the beloved gift of themselves and their lives.

This accessible book for young people is grounded in Scripture, the lives and teachings of the saints, and the foundational truths of our faith about God's goodness and his unconditional love for his creations--me and you! All I Am is a wonderful affirmation of the love God has for us and how we can respond in practical ways to the daily effects of his care. It is also an inspiring gift to give to any young person, not only to affirm their identity in God but also to help them discover their purpose as modern missionaries sent to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ in word and action. * Marcel Damphousse, Archbishop of Ottawa-Cornwall *In this thought-provoking book of spiritual reflections and prayers, Caroline Pignat invites young readers to think of God as their GPS, acknowledging the challenges of 'adulting' as our youth struggle to find meaning and courage in a world full of uncertainty and angst. With fresh ideas to inspire young people to connect with God through wisdom stories, Scripture, inspirational faith leaders, and saints throughout the ages, she urges teens to develop new images for God that resonate with their lives today. With God as their 'personal trainer,' coaching them through spiritual 'reps' to avoid the pitfalls of click bait, friendship drama, and the shame they carry and the forgiveness they find challenging, Caroline reminds her readers that Jesus walks into the middle of their mess and promises to stay. * Maureen Dufour, Chaplain, Ottawa Catholic School Board *More and more, teens are being tested and pushed to choose their battles, pick a side, stand up for what they believe. But how can anyone choose if they don't yet know what they believe about religion, politics, or social structures? To do that in any meaningful way, we first need to know what we believe about ourselves--who we are and what we want to be. All I Am helps readers do just that. By pairing contemplation and prayer with contemporary settings and situations that allow teens to reflect on their world, readers see themselves as God's kids, like him in the ways that really matter--loved, confident, blessed, and gifted. * Carol Bryden, series consultant for Growing in Faith, Growing in Christ *

Zondervan Words to Love By
Book SynopsisWith warmth and wisdom that speaks to the hearts of little ones, Words to Love By—written by #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren, and illustrated by Ag Jatkowska—is an inspirational, heartfelt look at language and how children can use their words to encourage, forgive, express gratitude, heal, and love.Words to Love By teaches children ages 4-8 to understand: How their words can change their lives and the lives of those around them How everyone must take ownership of their words “Words may be small, but they can do BIG things. Words can encourage. They can bring out the best in people. They can spread love and kindness … and let us know we’re not alone.”Pastor Rick Warren’s picture book: Features charming illustrations and engaging text for kids Is a wonderful read-aloud pictuTrade ReviewIn supportive, uplifting fashion, Warren focuses on the multifaceted impact of words and being mindful of those we use with others. The straightforward, brief main text introduces concepts, which are enlivened by brightly colored cartoon illustrations incorporating examples of related words and language and featuring expressive, multicultural characters, predominantly kids, in connected activities. For instance, 'Words can show respect' depicts a boy saying, 'After you, Ma'am,' as he opens a door for a woman pushing stroller. Other scenarios highlight words for fostering inclusiveness and showing appreciation, as well as a faith-based element ('God wants you to have a heart filled with kindness and love'). Fanciful touches in the art help temper, though not undermine, some of the more cautionary assertions, such as 'Be careful with your words . . . you can't take them back,' accompanied by an image of a girl trying to scrub away the phrase 'I hate you.' With a gently emphasized Christian message at its core, this thought-provoking, motivational picture book is a nice additional to faith-based collections. -- Shelle Rosenfeld * Booklist *Using a series of relatable, concrete examples, pastor and bestselling adult author Warren (The Purpose Driven Life) introduces young readers to the idea that the words one chooses to speak can greatly affect others. Alongside Warren's brief passages of text ('Words can encourage.... They can bring out the best in people'), Jatkowska's sunny mixed-media vignettes feature ethnically diverse children using language that spurs positive actions and reactions. In one spread, four spot illustrations, connected via arrows and dotted lines, demonstrate how one 'can spread love and kindness.' Hurtful, angry words and phrases are also addressed, though Warren's suggestion to be careful with one's words feels heavy-handed: 'Once you send them out into the world, you can't get them back.' This ode to compassionate language should have broad appeal. Ages 4--8. (Dec.) * Publishers Weekly *
