Book Description
In this sweet love letter a father tells his daughter he wishes he were a humble pebble. Then she could carry him in her pocket, reminding her for always how much he loves her. “A stone can be beautiful.” “A stone can live forever.” “A stone can be used to skim over water, leaving round ripples on the surface.” “A stone can come from your backyard, or from as far as outer space!” “A stone can be BIG like a mountain, or small like a pebble.” Through his imagination, he shows her the beauty and magic to be found in such a seemingly ordinary, humble object. But above all, he tells her he dreams of being a little stone pebble – all smooth, and round, and soft, sitting snugly at the bottom of her pocket. A little pebble she can holdso tightly in her hand, to keep her company, to give her comfort, to make her feel brave and safe. A little pebble she can always carry with her – like a lucky charm, and a symbol of his love, which will always be with her. This book is a perfect parent-child read, a winning Father's Day gift, and a soothing tale for children and families navigating big feelings and events in their children's lives, such as starting school, building confidence and working through separation anxiety.

But as the days add up, with no sign of Daddy, Lulu struggles to take care of all the responsibilities they used to manage as a family. Lulu knows that all it takes is one slip-up for their secret to come spilling out, for Lulu and Serena to be separated, and for all the good things that have been happening in school to be lost. But family is all around us, and Lulu must learn to trust her new friends and community to save those she loves and to finally find her true home.

Book Description
"A classic 'must-read.' Bold, countercultural, and more relevant than ever." Mary A. Kassian, author, Girls Gone Wise Have you sensed God's call to change your world? Do you believe you can be one of those women who, by her virtue, wisdom, dignity, and faith, makes an impact in her home and community? Maybe you've heard the call but weren't sure how to maximize the opportunities. Maybe society's definition of "true womanhood" has clouded your view of who you are in Christ. Or maybe you've just been waiting for a little encouragement and inspiration. In any case, Susan Hunt says, "Start now." And let this book be your encourager and companion. You will read how other Christian women are reflecting Christ despite difficult and sometimes tragic circumstances—and how you can reflect him, too. You'll explore what the Bible says about your identity as a true woman of God. And you'll discover how to further develop a biblically shaped and Spirit-driven character that people are drawn to. Begin today to draw closer to God and deepen your impact. This exhortation to biblical womanhood will set your heart on fire and help you take up the unique opportunity you have—an opportunity to make a difference for eternity.
