Find the magic (Rip Squeak) by Lee Cohoen

Beautiful illustrations, breathtaking pictures- the pictures really enhance the quality of this book- the paintings are very detailed yet not overwhelming. The story is a simple story encouraging children to "find the magic" through discovering different adventures in books. ( )

Forsaken

A very thought-provoking topic which leads the reader to question what would they do in this situation. This book touches on a lot of subjects which include terrorism and faith in God. If someone were to pose the question to you in a non-urgent, hypothetical way you may be able to answer but in the real heat of the moment the choice may not be as clear.
