A collection of 24 stories and 18 poems, I Wonder is designed to stimulate an interest in reading while providing spiritual lessons to the child in the second half of first grade. Just as Jesus used interesting stories, the stories in I Wonder are used to teach valuable lessons-both reading skills and spiritual. Stories like "Who's Afraid of Funder?" "Lesson From a Door Slammer," and "Mrs. Grape Jelly's Apples" will captivate the child's interest as story characters face real-to-life situations.

How can Nell possibly be thankful for dried onions? How can one apple make seven people happy? Why didn't Bradley enjoy playing with his little cousin? Children learn the answers in "Nell's Dried Onions," "The Apple That Was Polished Six Times," and "Lesson of the Lincoln Logs." They visit India where a little girl wants to learn to read. They have fun with Andy Lee and Mr. Doodleburger. And they learn about honesty, helpfulness, courtesy, trust, unselfishness, and thankfulness.

Wembo makes a late-night trip through the jungle; monkeys play a trick on Mario and Mario returns the favor; Ronnie is afraid of the principal; Eric is not invited to go along on the boat ride and plans revenge; Fred cannot do fractions; Eva Mae's five lively little brothers get her into trouble; Linda Lou wants to do something for Jesus. Happy Hearts continues the tradition of well-written, character-building stories for children.

Happy Hearts (Reading to Learn Series)

Christian Light Publications

Bridges Beyond will take you back to the past-a pioneer school, a young Noah Webster fascinated with words. It will take you to the animal world-the fox outwitting his enemy and the seal who wouldn't swim. It will take you to other lands-to France, to puzzle with Nanette over a strange mystery; to Spain, where a horse heard a voice; and to Holland, to wonder whether war will stop the storks' return. At each stop, you'll see God's power and learn His principles.
