This is a delightful book to read aloud to children. It's story is a captivating and fun adventure that our boys loved hearing every night. About a doctor who learns to talk to animals and his fun adventures through the perspective of Tommy Stubbins, his assistant.
This is a delightful book by Shannon Hale that is perfect for readers younger (teens) or older. It's an exciting and fun story with drama, action and even a little romance. It's an easy, fun read.
The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale. This was a fun book to read. It's specifically written for teens but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Romance and adventure combined into a lovely tale that's hard to put down.
The Trumpet of the Swan by E. B. White. Recently read this book to my boys and what a delightful story it was. A perfect read-aloud book that had them entranced and excited to read together night after night.
Another Gene Stratton Porter favorite that I've read multiple times and loved multiple times. I think I need to own this book because it speaks to my soul.
Loved this story. Edenbrooke, by Julianne Donaldson. "A Proper Romance" as it's called. Clean, stirring, and beautifully written. Set in the Regency period, similar style to Jane Austen's novels but much quicker and easier reads than hers. Loved it and can't wait to read more of Julianne Donaldson's books. Comes highly recommended.
Best movie my husband and I have watched in a long time. We need more shows as powerful as this one.
The message is clear and stirringly true. Our freedoms are being taken away from us and we need to not be afraid to stand up for them, even fight for them. Be sure to watch until the end, including the closing song over the credits. Currently it's available on Netflix.
Are you looking for a clean, feel good romance novel? I love all books by Gene Stratton Porter and this is definitely a favorite! The old fashioned kind of love story and those are the best kind. And as always it has Gene Stratton Porter's wonderful love of nature woven into the story which makes it a delight to read.
Our kids love all these movies and we've watched them many times. They are clean and exciting. Maybe a little scary in parts for really small children, but our kids really love them.
This is a funny, family-friendly movie that I look forward to watching with the kids when they get a little older. It's kind of goofy and silly, but clean and fun.
I loved this book as a child! I've been reading it to my boys every night and they love it too! What a delightful story it is- full of fantasy and adventure. We love the characters. A great classic!
This is a great movie about Christmas. It tells the story of how St. Nick came to be. What I love most about this movie is that whether or not the story is true, it helps us see that the Santa Claus figure is a figure of giving, a figure of love, which is truly the spirit of the season. Santa Claus isn't just a material and commercial part of Christmas. He is a gift giver, completely selfless, giving of himself and a great example to all of us.
This movie had a good message about keeping Christ the center of Christmas. I appreciated that, especially in this day when so many are afraid to make him the reason for the season.
Oh wow, I just discovered these books and they are wonderful. The are written for kids at the beginning chapter book reading level, but even my 3-year-old loved them when I read them to him because of the beautiful illustrations done by one of my favorite illustrators Chris Van Dusen.
This is an excellent book that was very enjoyable to read. It was written by Grace Livingston Hill. The story is about a daughter of a good family who has lived a sheltered life. This all changes when seemingly out of nowhere her father and brother are accused of some horrible crimes. The book explores the themes of forgiveness and repentance while at the same time weaving in an enduring love story. Great book.
This is a great book. It's specifically written for teens, but I sure enjoyed it as a light read. I liked the themes that were spread throughout the book and little clues hidden along the way that kind of came together at the end.
I loved this movie and would recommend it to you without reservation. It deals with the hardships that the Mormon pioneer handcart companies faced as they crossed the plains to the Salt Lake valley. It illustrates their faith and the miracles that occurred because of that faith. The stories were based on true events as recorded from the journals of those crossing. This is really a great film, with great acting. It's not your typical documentary film about these events; it really drew you into the story and made you feel as if you had been there.
