Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Canadian Library Association Book of the Year Award for Children, the Society of School Librarians International Best Book Award and a Jane Addams Children's Book Award Honor Book Ever since she was a little girl, Amani has wanted to be a shepherd, just like her beloved grandfather, Sido. For generations her family has grazed sheep above the olive groves of the family homestead near Hebron, and she has been steeped in Sido’s stories, especially one about a secret meadow called the Firdoos, where the grass is lush and the sheep grow fat, and about the wolf that once showed him the path there. But now Amani’s family home is being threatened by encroaching Jewish settlements. As she struggles to find increasingly rare grazing land for her starving sheep, her uncle and brother are tempted to take a more militant stance against the settlers. Then she accidentally meets Jonathan, an American boy visiting his settler father. Away from the pressures of their families, the two young people discover Sido’s secret meadow, the domain of a lone wolf. And Amani learns that she must share the meadow, and even her sheep, with the wolf, if she is going to continue to use it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient village of Drumlin is one of peace and wisdom. The people have not known bloodshed in ages, so when their deity, The Always, sends a prophecy of division and discord through a wise old woman, no one can believe it. Is it possible fighting could start among them? After all, the closest outside settlement is Barchan Mountain, and the people of Drumlin have not been in contact with them for generations. Tephra is a young shepherdess who lives in Drumlin Hills. She is considered a favorite of The Always. Graceful and beautiful, she dances and sings in the village ceremonies and even soothes the flock with her singing. One day, she must traverse a treacherous mountain trail to save a lost lamb. The trail takes her close to Barchan Mountain—and suddenly the events of the prophecy are set in motion. Tephra’s unwilling participation in these events sets in motion the drawing apart of her people. Old fears and superstitions threaten the peace of her village, and she is forced to make some extremely difficult decisions. Her choices challenge the way the Drumlins have lived for centuries. Can a young shepherdess, a favorite of The Always, bring new wisdom to the people of her village? Or will their refusal to change lead to their downfall?

Book Synopsis Certain Poor Shepherds by : Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
Download or read book Certain Poor Shepherds written by Elizabeth Marshall Thomas and published by Candlewick. This book was released on 2015-09-22 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dog, a goat, and their flock follow the sight and scent of a star in a beautifully illustrated, keenly observed Nativity story. The story begins on a cold upland pasture where coarse grass and scrub cedar grew. The hour was midnight. The day was the first of winter. And the year of our Lord was not 1900 or 1600 or even 100. It was 0. On that night a white goat, Ima, and a huge, gray short-haired sheepdog, Lila, were keeping watch over a small flock of young sheep. Bright and dazzling, a star appears behind the cedars on the eastern skyline. It is big and powerful, and it has a pure, clean scent, like something halfway between honey and water. Lila, the sheepdog, and Ima, the goat, are compelled to follow the star on a journey to a humble manger in Bethlehem, a journey beset with danger, adventure, and love. In a story alive with insight and grace, best-selling author Elizabeth Scott Thomas brings us a striking portrait of the Nativity story from the captivating point of the view of the animal kingdom.

Book Synopsis The Journey Continues: from Groaning to Dancing by : Richard Jones
Download or read book The Journey Continues: from Groaning to Dancing written by Richard Jones and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-01-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a pure pleasure for me to be writing again. Fourteen years of being involved in teaching and school administration have claimed most of my hours and focus. My desire to write turned into thoughts of “someday...” or “next year I’m gonna...”. With departure from the business of the classroom, I once again have the freedom to commit myself to putting pen to paper (or I should say, “fingers to keyboard”). William Faulkner wrote, “It is the writer’s privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart.” That is my desire, and I appreciate your allowing me to be a small part of the “heart-lifting” process in your life. Since my last project, I have had several requests to write a sequel, a second prayer devotional. A discussion with my late father ended with a commitment to do so. It is with pleasure that I honor that commitment. Much of what I write is never seen by anyone but the Lord and me, but written words can live on as long as there are readers to see them. Michael Straczynski called it “immortality by proxy.”

This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-four years in an asylum is enough time to really lose your mind. And arouse one to unleash the dark and vengeful thoughts residing therein. Hagatha Ketchel was beyond distraught. She was shunned and cast out by her husband for bearing him a daughter instead of a son. Hysterical, she did the unthinkable. And for it, she was committed to a mental institution. They told Hagatha her stay there would help. They claimed that it was much more humane than other insane asylums. Yet, Hagatha’s hopes were dashed. She descended into a deeper and darker place—a place no one would ever want to go. Hagatha did the only thing she could – she found a way to live with her demons. Not just exist with them but use them to her advantage. She may have seemed like the model patient when she was discharged after 24 years. But there was nothing therapeutic about her transformation. Her extended incarceration was the genesis of Hagatha’s lethal plan and life-long commitment. Those who spurned her in the past hadn’t a clue of the calamity she was about to unleash. Hagatha Ketchel Unhinged is the second book in the Slaughter Minnesota horror series. Join Hagatha in her descent into hell to appreciate how she became Slaughter’s most dreaded resident. If you grew up near that one scary house that you didn’t dare pass or that strange neighbor you always tried to avoid, this is a story for you. Buy your copy now, before Hagatha Ketchel unleashes a calamity on you!
