Dad, My Friend Says There is No God
Ever had a child or even a friend ask a question you just couldn't answer. Most people would just ignore the question or reply with you just have to have faith. This book series is designed to help children (and some adults) answer the questions or reply to statements this world believes. This book in particular deals with the idea of how to respond when someone says that God isn't real or doesn't exist. Would you be able to answer the question logically? Would your children? To be honest, most Christians would just use the Bible as their proof. However, most skeptics don't trust the Bible and bringing in the Bible creates another issue of answering the question and then defending the Bible. This book will help you understand what the question implies and how to deal with it easily and correctly.

Honey on the Page
Winner, 2021 Reference & Bibliography Award in the 'Reference' Section, given by the Association of Jewish Libraries An unprecedented treasury of Yiddish children's stories and poems enhanced with original illustrations While there has been a recent boom in Jewish literacy and learning within the US, few resources exist to enable American Jews to experience the rich primary sources of Yiddish culture. Stepping into this void, Miriam Udel has crafted an exquisite collection: Honey on the Page offers a feast of beguiling original translations of stories and poems for children. Arranged thematically--from school days to the holidays--the book takes readers from Jewish holidays and history to folktales and fables, from stories of humanistic ethics to multi-generational family sagas. Featuring many works that are appearing in English for the first time, and written by both prominent and lesser-known authors, this anthology spans the Yiddish-speaking globe--drawing from materials published in Eastern Europe, New York, and Latin America from the 1910s, during the interwar period, and up through the 1970s. With its vast scope, Honey on the Page offers a cornucopia of delights to families, individuals and educators seeking literature that speaks to Jewish children about their religious, cultural, and ethical heritage. Complemented by whimsical, humorous illustrations by Paula Cohen, an acclaimed children's book illustrator, Udel's evocative translations of Yiddish stories and poetry will delight young and older readers alike.

The Love of a Six Year Old
The Book is about Family Values. How much do we value our family and those around us, whom we may see today and not see tomorrow. Mathew 22:39 God says, "You shall love your neighbor as your self." We must learn to love ourselves then you can be able to love some one else. We can not give what we do not have. The little Six year Old Anna demonstrated what she learn from her family value and change her community by giving in return what she has learn and walked it. Jesus Christ demonstrated His Love for us by going on the cross, He paid a Debt that non of us could pay. How do we love one another: Be humble, do not always be quick to blame others, Be Gentle, Be Patient bearing one another's burden. Jesus teaching is all about Love, He died on the cross to reconcile us back to God, by accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior in our Heart, by confessing with our mouth, that Jesus Christ is the only one that can forgive our sins.
