A Collection of Curiously Christian Comics Rarely do I find time to re-read books, but these 85 pages zoom by so fast, I’ve re-read this little book multiple times—and honestly, I wouldn’t mind reading it again. Before picking up this … Continue reading

This gallery contains 2 photos.

Over the past few years, we’ve read a number of books published by JourneyForth Press (formerly BJU Press). We’ve especially loved the Derwood series by Jeri Massi and the missionary stories like These Are My People by Mildred T. Howard. … Continue reading

Book Review: “Commission: Impossible, Rogue Agent” by Eric Simon and Eric Lee (2019)

This gallery contains 2 photos.

I’ve got several venues where I can get quality books for dirt cheap, if not for free. That’s not to say that I’m unwilling to spend the cover-price for books to support the authors, but used books are always just … Continue reading

My son turned 13 last week, and to celebrate during Spring Break we traveled to a waterpark for a few days. I decided to try out one of his library books on my own during the break, and I’m glad … Continue reading

Book Review: “Why Geese Fly Farther Than Eagles” by Bob Stromberg (1992)

This gallery contains 1 photo.

As I’ve been waking up my kids with books this school year, I’ve been trying to choose books that have shorter chapters, some life lessons from a Christian perspective, and (if possible) some entertainment to keep things lively. Recently, we’ve … Continue reading

It’s not every day I read a watercolor-illustrated by book by (what I can only assume was) an Irish-Catholic hippy! But these are weird days, so here I am. I came across this book in another Little Free Library. I … Continue reading

Book Review: “Rasmus and the Vagabond” by Astrid Lindgren (1956)

This gallery contains 2 photos.

I absolutely love reading and reviewing great books you’ve never heard of! This book by the author of Pippi Longstocking is a far more human, far less silly tale of yet another 9-year-old in Sweden. It’s a fantastic read. Because … Continue reading

Book Review: “A View from the Zoo” by Gary Richmond (1987)

This gallery contains 1 photo.

Here’s another book you’ve likely never heard of. For some reason, I get more pleasure out of reading and reviewing out-of-print, out-of-mind books than I do the mainstream stuff. Mining through forgotten books like this, there’s always the off-chance that … Continue reading

Book Review: “Pippi on the Run” by Astrid Lindgren (1971)

This gallery contains 2 photos.

This is the fourth and final Pippi Longstocking book that I have available to me at my libraries, which is slightly disappointing. According to Book Notification, Astrid Lindgren wrote tons of Pippi stories in Swedish. Could it be that so … Continue reading

Pippi Long stocking, Book #2 My kids are growing up faster than I expected (said every patient ever, probably). When I found the second and fourth Pippi Longstocking books in our church library, I personally was stoked, but my aging … Continue reading
