Book Description
With the world’s food supply controlled by greedy, evil corporations, the Earth is dying and needs help. Mother Nature and Father Time knew this day would come and have devised a plan. Long ago, they sent twelve families of magical creatures—two elven changelings, two skyroamers, and several gnomes—to different forests around the globe, with a chest and a codex. To help save Earth and humanity, the leader of each family is to unlock their chest using the codex on a special date. Though most of the families hide their chest and codex to protect them when they arrive at their new homes, one family doesn’t. Wanting humans gone and elves and gnomes to rule Earth, the sly gnome Napoleon opens his chest right away and tricks his family to help him persuade big corporations to take land away from small farmers and poison the Earth with chemicals. With big corporate farms affecting their homes, the other magical families are having difficulty retrieving their chests and codices. Gnomes Mik and Min were in charge of hiding their family’s codex, but when the day to open their chest is only weeks away, they can’t seem to find it either! Will the families find their chests and codices in time or will they be too late? The first book in the Saga of Mik and Min series, Mother Nature’s Plan is an enchanting and adventurous tale about the importance of working together to save and care for our one-and-only Earth.

The Rabbit Full of Hugs and Kisses
Author: Linda Marie Richardson
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1644920425
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 35
Book Description
The teaching career helps so many children in great need of wisdom for their age-group, as well as finding how they might help with other stressors in their students' lives. This teacher is a golden nugget. The child involved is facing a challenge in his life that is brought to school when he shares it with his friends. In return, the teacher gets involved when she finds out about his unhappiness. Clearly, his stressor is that his family is moving from the only home he has ever known, and he is leaving family behind that he loves very dearly. The teacher provides a new friend for her student that brings great joy and friendship into the child's life. This friend is filled with memories for the child to take on his journey to his new home where he could then replace any loneliness with happiness. After 30 years in the business world I took an early retirement. I filled my extra time with church work, gardening, crafting, knitting and helping with our beloved grandchildren. However, there was still a void in my heart that needed to be filled. The fullness came when I started writing about memories from the past and present. My husband, Bob, and I have a blended marriage of 3 children, 10 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren (at this time). I am sure there will be more greats to come. I was blessed to be able to go to Israel in 2005. What a wonderful adventure I shared with many from the church we attended at that time. Bob and I are active members of Gracepoint church in Whiteland, Indiana. Bob is a deacon, helps with sanctuary cleaning and the church's food bank. I am in the choir, attend women's bible study, and we are both involved in a Grace to Glory group as well as a Life Group. I give all honor, glory and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ who has put the words to my heart to author this book.
