Book Description
A lemonade stand in winter? Yes, that's exactly what Pauline and John-John intend to have, selling lemonade and limeade--and also lemon-limeade. With a catchy refrain (Lemon lemon LIME, Lemon LIMEADE! Lemon lemon LIME, Lemon LEMONADE!), plus simple math concepts throughout, here is a read-aloud that's great for storytime and classroom use, and is sure to be a hit among the legions of Jenkins and Karas fans. "A beautifully restrained tribute to trust and tenderness shared by siblings; an entrepreneurship how-to that celebrates the thrill of the marketplace without shying away from its cold realities; and a parable about persistence." —Publishers Weekly, Starred

Book Description
As a young woman in Victorian England, Anna Champion knows all too well the social mores that value prettiness over sense, and etiquette over honesty. But when she stands up to the boorishness of dashing Christopher Davenport at a summertime ball, Anna unwittingly attracts his wrath--and becomes entangled in his malicious scheming. After a lifetime of harboring shame and resentment, Christopher, a ruthless con artist, wants revenge, and unfortunately for Anna, he's decided that she will be the perfect pawn in his terrible plot. With a fierceness of spirit uncommon in well-bred young ladies in the nineteenth century, Anna will have to use her intelligence and courage to protect her loved ones. But can she also save herself?

Book Description
Petambi and the Moon is a celebration of Gods faithfulness, as witnessed by the constant presence of the moon each night. It explores the fragile yet hilarious world of teenage life, which vacillates between independence and childhood, along with a budding awareness of sexuality. I rewrote my life to understand how Christ moved within. In the searching, stumbling heart of Petambi there are heroic and ridiculous battles with first love, the book of Genesis, alcoholism, and the shock of death. Petambis friend, Bear, is invisible to all but her. He is fashioned after a Franciscan Friar, who was a clown with me for nine years and who could make children laugh. I hope Petambi and the Moon brings you joy as well.

Book Description
Updated and revised 3rd edition, author-authorized version. Ariana and Jean-Marc Perrault have built a wonderful life together in France. They have raised their six children to believe in God and stay close to the Church. Along the way they faced many challenges and relied on their faith to see them through. Now, as the shadows darken around their family once again, they struggle to find strength and comfort in the face of almost unendurable heartache. Pauline, their adopted daughter, is gravely ill. After sixteen years of hoping and praying for a miracle, how can they bear to let her go? And how can Emeri, Pauline's first love, reconcile such a terrible loss with what she has taught him about the gospel? Meanwhile, unaware of their sister’s worsening condition, Marie-Thérèse and Josette are in America attending Brigham Young University. Marie-Thérèse is only marking time until she can serve a mission . . . but will the handsome Mathieu change her mind? And beautiful, flighty Josette doesn't know what she wants—until a near tragedy teaches her what is really important in life. Follow the Perrault daughters as they grow from young women to wives with children of their own, facing and overcoming challenges that will resonate with readers of all ages. From life's darkest moments to its sweetest joys, author Rachel Ann Nunes skillfully portrays the characters and events that will give you an unforgettable Glimpse of Eternity.
