"Peace People" by Robyn Short and Nanon Williams is a whimsically
illustrated book that helps young children understand the concept
of peace and how to experience peace in their own lives so that
they may help others to experience peace as well. "Peace People"
offers a positive approach to having necessary conversations and
lessons about anti-bullying at home and in school. This book helps
children to understand that peace is possible when we choose to be
peace. "Peace People" is perfect for children of all ages.
Songs, Scriptures, and Stories offers readers a wide selection of
primary sources chosen for both their cultural importance and their
potential to spark student interest in Asian religious traditions.
The reading selections typify specific cultural idioms, yet speak
to global human themes that prompt debate and discussion. Readers
explore Hinduism, Chinese religions, and Buddhism. The readings
include not only excerpts from works well known in the West like
the Bhagavad Gita, the Analects, Zhuang Zi, the Dhammapada and
others, but also cherished selections from the vernacular side of
Asia's religious cultures such as India's Prem Sagur, China's
Legend of Miao Shan, and the Bamboo Cutter's Daughter from Japan.
The focus is on the literature rather than descriptions or
interpretations, which gives instructors the freedom to tailor
lectures and supplemental materials to the specific needs of their
courses. Students benefit from the mix of classic and less familiar
documents, which creates a lively and engaging mix of sacred hymns,
poetry, scripture, and legendary tales. Songs, Scriptures, and
Stories is well suited to survey courses on Asian religions or
religious literature.

In the second edition of The Old North Field, Dr. William Lindsey
McDonald has captured the warmth and nostalgia of a Norman Rockwell
painting with his reminiscences of growing up in the heart of the
South. Whether he is remembering his mother's Iced Tea or the
gentle gathering of the women folk while Snapping Beans, you will
be taken along as he recalls a wonderful and warm past, one we all
wish we had experienced. The smoke from the neighbor's chimney
(Smoke in the Valley), and the glow of Christmas lights (The
Christmas Window) are all visions in your mind's eye, courtesy of
Dr. McDonald. Travel along with him as he tells of a time when
families and neighbors were close, when seasons held endearing
memories for a young boy who recalls Daffodils of March, old time
Boxwood trees (A Touch of Boxwood), and of how church on Sunday was
more than just preaching, but a source of a long forgotten and
almost extinct form of singing (The Sacred Harp). This edition is
also enhanced with the beautiful illustrations by his wife, Dorothy
Carter McDonald.
