Turn Toward the Sun
Author: Mandy Hale
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493436260
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
If recent world events have taught us anything, it's that life doesn't always look the way we want it to look. And while we can't control the curveballs life throws at us, we can control our response to them. We can choose to loosen our grip on what we think life is "supposed" to be and embrace life for exactly what it is--messiness and mayhem and all. We can choose to stubbornly turn toward the sun, even as the storm rages around us. That surrender is where true happiness and peace lie. With insights born from her own hard-won battles, Mandy Hale turns her attention (and her sizable wit) to showing you what she's learned about letting go of the desire to control everything in life. With the honesty and authenticity she's known for, Mandy inspires you to stop striving, live in the moment, sit with your experiences, and trust God with the unknown. Like sunflowers that turn toward the sun that helps them grow tall and strong, we can turn to friends, family, and faith for strength in difficult times. If you've felt depleted or despairing as you've wrestled with circumstances beyond your control, you will find in Mandy a kind and trustworthy guide through the storm.

Secrets of the Seasons: Orbiting the Sun in Our Backyard
Author: Kathleen Weidner Zoehfeld
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0307982408
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
The family from Secrets of the Garden are back in a new book about backyard science that explains why the seasons change. Alice and her friend Zack explore the reasons for the seasons. Alice's narrative is all about noticing the changes as fall turns into winter, spring, and then summer. She explains how the earth's yearlong journey around the sun, combined with the tilt in the earth's axis, makes the seasons happen. Alice's text is clear and simple, and experiential. Two very helpful—and very funny—chickens give more science details and further explanation through charts, diagrams, and sidebars. Packed with sensory details, humor, and solid science, this book makes a complicated concept completely clear for young readers—and also for the many parents who struggle to answer their kids' questions! "Several adults of my acquaintance . . . would find Secrets of the Seasons to be an eye-popping revelation." —John Lithgow, The New York Times Book Review

Planet Alicia
Author: Alexis Sixela
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1435702697
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Traveling to another planet is also a trip inside. It makes you pay a visit to some corners of your brain that are not always in working order. At home, everything has a length, a width and a depth. This is our cubist environment. The stars above don't seem to have any use for our straight lines, right angles and flat surfaces. You don't have to go far to see that our so called 'normal' way of thinking is only a first approximation. Len, our photographer, fell in love on Planet Alicia. That was more than he expected. He went there with the idea that love is something that he produces and gives away. Now he sees lovers as those double stars going through the universe dancing around each other, united by their distance. The transition was not easy. He nearly died. We went there convinced that we are the master of our ship. I came back thinking that I am trying to master the wind blowing in my sails. Enjoy the trip.
