QUEEN ESTHER AND THE SECOND GRADERS OF DOOM

Laura V. Hilton 07/2006

Teaching Sunday school was supposed to help Esther "Essie" Walker understand boys so she can raise her son properly. Fat chance, as she meets the eight-year-old male psyche, made up of awful jokes, disrespectful behavior, and general mayhem. (Inspirational/Chick-lit)

THE QUILT

Vickie McDonough 05/2004

The Quilt is a beautifully woven intergenerational story of a grandmother who uses a quilting project to pass along her spiritual heritage to family and friends. As the women gather together to share thanksgiving and requests as they quilt, they end up weaving both aspects of prayer into the fabric of their lives. In a world where people often are too busy to talk to those around them, here is a welcome invitation to sit quietly, pray for others, and give thanks to God. A perfect gift for women of all ages, especially those who enjoy quilts, quilting, and other crafts. (Inspirational/Fiction)
