Hey, Toothpick will help children learn how to be kind and love everyone including themselves.
Although a magical place, it is not without a problem for Meggie. One person in her town causes her to dislike her appearance. Almost everyone treated her with kindness and love, except for one certain boy. He wasn’t a bad boy, not at all. He just had one bad habit––he always called Meggie an unkind name. Meggie learns it’s important to treat everyone as she would want them to treat her––even if they aren’t nice to her in return. The message of this story will enable children to see their worth and build self-esteem. And, as Meggie found, treating others with kindness can cause them to change and become kind too.

The buzz about the book:
Where was God?
Didn't He see them in the middle of a foreign country with no help?
Frustrated and exhausted, Peggy walked the mission property early mornings to slip away temporarily from her caregiver duties and meet with the Savior. Her husband suffered from a bout with shingles that left him in constant pain with no relief––not even with morphine. Months turned into years. Countless doctors tried their best but with no success.
Where was God? Didn’t He see them in the middle of a foreign country with no help? Hadn’t they given their lives to serve as missionaries and trusted Him for their health? She wept as she sat near a flowerbed filled with daisies.
Just then, the buzz of bees drew her attention. They danced peacefully from flower to flower doing the job God created them to do, even as a storm approached. She noticed a pattern. If bees could be joyful and peaceful in all circumstances, surely she could find a way.
Through the thirty-one devotions, this book examines what Peggy learned about God’s intricate creation of the honeybee and how it speaks direction into our need for living peaceful, productive lives while overcoming stress and achieving joy. God is faithful always, and His creation magnifies His majesty if we take time to seek Him in everyday situations––even through the honeybee.

Really Rare Rabbits Book 3
Over the Winding Wall
They've heard a scary story about giant ghost geese who live in
Selvaland. Chi Chi shrugs it off, but Fi Fi is frightened. He assures her it is
just a story. After all, their friend Al wouldn't send them into Selvaland if
danger lurked there.
Chi Chi soon changes his mind when they meet Hotchie, a strange
looking creature guarding the entrance of Selvaland. But, Hotchie is not the
scariest creature they will meet along the way. When the rabbits stop to rest,
their fears mount. Fi Fi trembles, but Chi Chi encourages her to believe God's
Word that says, "Trust the Lord forever, for in God the Lord, we have an
everlasting Rock." Chi Chi doesn't know how much he and Fi Fi will need to
trust the Lord all the way to the Winding Wall––and beyond!
Really Rare Rabbits Book 2:
The Secret at Peppermint Pass
Fi Fi and her brother heard about Jesus when they ventured down their mountain in Bolivia and peered into the windows of the missionaries’ house. Now, she and Chi Chi are starting a long journey to meet Grandfather who went to visit his Inca relatives of long ago. He’s waiting for them at the mysterious Winding Wall. But first, they must journey through secretive Peppermint Pass.
She’s heard stories of giant green ghosts at Peppermint Pass, and she sure doesn’t want to meet any ghosts––especially giant green ones––along the way. So, the morning they leave for the big trip, Fi Fi tells her brother about her fears. Chi Chi waves them off as just stories. While Fi Fi still trembles, she remembers a Bible verse tucked away in her racing heart, “Do not fear; I will help you.” Isaiah 41:13 (NIV)
Fi Fi realizes why it is so important to memorize Scripture––so it stays in your heart always and comes back to you when you need it. Even so, she has no idea how much she and her brother will need to call on God for help to rescue them from the dangers that await on their journey through Peppermint Pass.

Even though Chi Chi and Fi Fi are supposed to stay well hidden during the day, they decide to venture down the mountain to peer in the missionaries’ windows. That is when their dangerous adventure begins.
