A family service for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
Now available in a special edition for readers age 9-12, "90
Minutes in Heaven" is the runaway bestseller about one man's
experience with death and life. When Don Piper's car collided with
a semi-truck he was pronounced dead at the scene. For the next 90
minutes, he experienced the glories of heaven. Back on earth, a
passing minister felt led to pray for the accident victim even
though he was told Piper was dead. Miraculously, Piper came back to
life, and the pleasure of heaven was replaced by a long and painful
recovery.
An inspiring account for people of all ages, "90 Minutes in Heaven"
is now poised to touch and comfort children in the same way it has
offered encouragement and hope to millions of adults.
Fans of Rick Riordan s Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Peter Lerangis s Seven Wonders series will embrace this epic adventure in a rollicking new series by a New York Times bestselling author.
Will Wilder didn t mean to unlock his otherworldly gift. But that is exactly what happens when Will borrows a sacred relic believed to protect the town of Perilous Falls for nearly a century. Even though his intentions are good, the impulsive twelve-year-old unwittingly awakens an ancient evil endangering all of Perilous Falls.
As boats sink and hideous creatures crawl from the rising waters, it is up to Will to confront a nightmarish enemy and set things right before it is too late. Along with his sweet if lethal great-aunt Lucille, the curator of a museum of supernatural artifacts, Will proves that the actions of one twelve-year-old boy can change the world.
