Publisher's Summary:

God created a beautiful world to enjoy. He made a man and woman to take care of it, and told them to be fruitful and increase in numbers. However, man disobeyed and wickedness was all over the world. The devil lured man to sin, and God decided to destroy the Earth with a flood. As a sign that he would never send a flood again to destroy the whole Earth, God created the rainbow as a sign of promise. However, wicked people have taken the rainbow to make it mean something evil. That evil is men marrying men and women marrying women. God only wants one man and one woman to marry. Anything other than this is wrong.

In this book for children, they will learn what God's original intent was for marriage and what the real meaning of the rainbow stands for. Due to the devil flashing this sin in front of the faces of children everywhere, it is important to start teaching them early about what God expects from us all.

Excellent Book to teach kids the WRONGS of homosexuality.

If you want children to know about the sin of homosexuality...get this book. LGBT is bombarding our children with demonic evils.

We as Christians must fight against it!

has loved this book for about a year now

My daughter, now 2.5, has loved this book for about a year now. At first, this was one of her longer books. Not sure what her main takeaway was, but she identified with a lot of the emotions on the cartoon faces and asked questions about the animation. We read it multiple times per day for months and eventually had to buy a second copy due to damage from overuse. I was hoping for boardbook format with no such luck. The other day I was scolding my child for something... Either knocking over her sister or splashing water out of the bathtub, whatever. I told her I was very disappointed because she knew better. She said, "like Christie?" I had no idea what the heck she was talking about. She told me it was like the sandwich. Took me a while to get it, but she was obviously relating it back to this book. For the last couple of months we have been going to the library and checking out books every week so we haven't been reading her favorites on the shelf, but she just remembers this book so well! As she gets older, I think we will talk more about Christie's disability, but right now I believe she reads this as a story of a complex working relationship and unconditional love.

Five Stars

One of my favorite children's book

We loved Orik and his important messages!

My 2nd grade students loved learning about Orik and his important job, especially since the story is told through his perspective! It is a fun format to have important discussions about helping others, forgiving yourself when you make mistakes and working persistently! I highly reccommend this book to all parents and teachers of elementary age kids!

Helps kids understand disabilities

This is an important message and the cartoon format appeals to all young children. It is currently the favorite read of my granddaughter who is under two years old. She can grasp the message that this dog is a helper and loves hearing all about it!

Inspiring!

This is such a great book for any age but expecially children learning about differently able individuals!

Excellent for all ages - Art work equisite

I have purchased over 20 of these books for family and friends. It has been well received by all of them. I have given this book to ages two to fourty. I find that the art work compliments the story well. The younger children who are unable to read are able to create their own stories from the pictures. It is priceless to watch a two year old make up their own stories to the pictures. The younger and older children are drawn into the story by these illustrations. The author and the illustrator did a fantastic job. In addition, the information in the back of the book is a great teaching tool. I have given 5 of these books to school teachers who love the facts and quizzes at the end of the story. It would be a nice compliment to a weather unit at school. The teachers have stated it is well written and the vivid detail to the pictures bring the book to life and make it interesting for all ages. I highly recommend this book to all parents, teachers, and people who are looking for that unique gift.

circle plot story of a calendar year told in rhyme

Each month has a poem for one specific animal. The season or weather pages at the end are excellent, as are the learning activities at the end of the book.

Animals, Sounds, children, Months, Seasons

Darcy Pattison has taken the 12 months of the year and shown the cycle of life on the prairie, as well as the weather cycle. She didn't stop there. She has filled the end of her book with lessons and activities that covers habitats, math, science, geography, reading. She provides online activities and resources and for those of us who are teachers, this book is geared to state standards. I look forward to putting this on the shelf for my grandkids and recommending it to the parents of my students who have little ones at home

A real winner

Have you ever sat outside to watch the dark clouds build up and a storm roll in? This book about the prairie or grassland habitat details the different kinds of storms that normally come in each month of the year on the prairies and what various sorts of animals in that habitat do when they occur, such as the prairie chicken in a January snowstorm, the sand crane in a March tornado, the red fox in a May rain shower, the striped skunk in a July dust storm, the burrowing owl in an August cloudburst, and the bald eagle in a November ice storm. Other animals mentioned include the ground hog, prairie dogs, white tailed deer, the earless lizard, the cougar, and the bison. Other weather phenomena discussed include fog, a flash flood, a thunderstorm, heat lightning during a drought, hail, and blizzards. By the way, do you know what grassland prairies are called in South America?

The six "For Creative Minds" pages in the back feature more information about the grassland habitat, finding grasslands around the world, a weather and seasons matching activity, and questions about weather and seasonal changes relating to both animals and humans.

Title: Buddy the Bulldozer

Author: Ken Bossone

Narrator: Charles D. Baker

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-13-15

Publisher: Nobility Books

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

There once was a very dedicated little, gray bulldozer by the name of Buddy. He lived on a ranch with his owners Andy and Eileen. Andy and Eileen loved him dearly. Buddy did a lot of chores around the ranch like making new roads and clearing the way for farm equipment. He always wanted to be the best bulldozer he could be!

But not everyone saw it like that. Some of the newer, shinier, bigger bulldozers would make fun of him. They'd say "Look at Buddy, he's too small!" However, Buddy knew there was no such thing as being too small. Plenty of small things are useful. Others would say "Look at Buddy, he's so old!" But Buddy knew that with age, people become wiser and Buddy the bulldozer was as wise as they come. He knew that being negative wouldn't do anything but make himself and others sad so he remained happy, and held his chin up high.

One day Buddy the bulldozer breaks down and nobody knows how to fix him. All the other ranchers are telling Andy and Eileen to scrap buddy and buy a newer, more modern, bigger bulldozer. The question is...can Buddy get fixed in time to help his owners do some very important work on the ranch so the farm animals will be saved, or will Buddy be replaced?

But with the lake nearly frozen over, he soon realizes that he is not cut out for life on ice.

Perfect!

Family Love is the Best of All!

About: Whistling Wings is a childrenâs picture book written by Laura Goering and illustrated by Laura Jacques. It was published on 8/1/2008 by Arbordale Publishing, hardcover, 32 pages. Please see more info about the author below. Arbordale Publishingâs mission is to inspire the love of reading and improve young childrenâs science and math skills through picture books. These books will captivate your kidsâ minds on your lap, at bedtime, or in the classroom. This book is for ages 4-8, Grades PK-3.

My Experience: I started reading Whistling Wings on 1/19/17 as a bedtime story for my 5 year-old son. This is actually our second time reading this book. We both liked this book very much. The illustrations are so beautiful. The story focuses on a little boy swan named Marcel who loves his home because of the great weather and abundant food source. But when winter comes, his family asks him to migrate and he doesnât want to go because he feels afraid of the long distance he is required to fly. On the day of migration, he hides so that he could stay back. Then when everyone is gone and the weather is so cold, he feels sad and alone. Other animals tried to help him but either heâs too big to sleep in a log or canât swim underwater. This book is absolutely great for kids to read because they not only learn about tundra swans migration but they also learn to stay together with family because family will take care of them.

Pro: family, migration, survival, illustration, tundra swans, helpful passerby

Con: the story didnât mention a location where the swans stay and where they are going

I rate it 5 stars!

***Disclaimer: Many thanks to Arbordale Publishing for the opportunity to read and review. Please be assured that my opinions are honest.

Stories for Children Magazine 5 Star Review

Reviewed by: Gayle Jacobson-Huset

This is one of the most beautifully written and illustrated books I've ever seen! This charming tale, written by Minnesota author Laura Goering, exudes warmth, friendliness, and love. Even the title is beautiful! Marcel is a young whistling swan, also known as a tundra swan, that lands with his parents and flock on a beautiful lake. This is their new home for a few months, so Marcel feasts on the lake goodies such as wild celery and sago pondweed and plays with the other young swans. He was so happy because he didn't have to fly anywhere. As winter approaches, the flock leaves and Marcel is left behind because he hid while the flock left. He soon misses his parents and realizes he is now all alone. Other animals take pity on him and offer suggestions on how he can find food and a home for winter.

Title: Loon Chase

Author: Jean Heilprin Diehl

Narrator: Donna German

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-12-15

Publisher: Arbordale Publishing

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

When a boy and his mother take their dog, Miles, on a peaceful canoe ride, they find themselves frantically racing to save a mother loon and her family! Join them and see the surprising outcome of Miles' encounter with the loons. Then witness the boy's moment of wonder when he meets the loon. The "For Creative Minds" section includes loon fun facts, information about loons in Native American culture, a "make a loon mask" craft, and a "map it," "math it," and "measure it" section. This book encourages children to care for animals.

Members Reviews:

correct nonfiction information about loons

We have loons in northern Minnesota, and they can't nest on shore as their feet are made for swimming not walking on land. The story doesn't directly say this but otherwise is true. The nonfiction pages at the end are good. The story is good and has a plot making it a multi-genre piece.

Wonderful nature story

This picture book tells the story of a young boy, his mother and their family dog, Miles.

They are all out on a canoeing trip in search of a spot to pick blueberries. Miles jumps in the water and swims alongside their canoe. They come upon an adult loon with its two babies. Miles swims ahead after seeing the birds in the water because he is curious.

Quoted from the book: "I tossed the berries I had in my hand into the bucket. We jabbed our paddles onto the rocks to push off. We had to stop him. Miles was our family pet. He played ball, slept on a dog bed and ate out of a bowl, but when he saw a bird, something came over him. He had never been close to catching one in our yard. These loons were on the water though--and two of them were babies!" (pg 6 of 32)

The story then explains how the other bird parent had returned to its family and when Miles got to close, the bird spread its large wings and danced on the water, creating a fierce demonstration for Miles. Miles returned to where his family was frantically paddling towards the confrontation.

Following the story is a section on fun facts on loons, loons in Native American culture, and craft instructions with sample pieces to use for the construction of a loon mask.

The Loon Chase story is enhanced by the detailed pastel renderings illustrated by Kathryn Freeman. This book serves as a combination of a picture book and a school textbook, a technique pioneered by Sylvan Dell Publishing, who calls these books "For Creative Minds." This is an idea that will change teaching and students perceptions of learning.

Armchair Interview says: Sylvan Dell has again provided an interesting story and wonderful added information at the end.

Instincts

A young boy and his mother discover that their pet dog Miles, is indeed a dog with animal instincts. Miles loves to swim and he joins them by swimming along side of the canoe as they enjoy a summer morning on the lake. At the end of the lake a loon and her two chicks are also enjoying a morning swim.

Mother and son become anxious as they see Miles swim straight for the birds. Miles is a gentle family pet but something comes over him when he sees birds. Knowing that loons are an endangered species, they paddle as fast as they can to keep Miles from harming them. Mother and son paddle frantically to capture Miles before he reaches the birds.

There was no reason for the human mother to worry about the baby looms, as Miles draws near, the mother loon rises up to protect her babies.
