Bøger af Judith Craig Fryman

Imagine if your grandmother owned a candy store! Or if your cousin, mother, sister, fellow parishioner, neighbor, or friend had an excellent sweet shop in an old bank building with a special vault filled with chocolate and your favorite books. It's a Sweet Thing is a 33-year history of Judith Craig Fryman's fun adventure in owning such a candy store beginning in 1985 in Brookville, Ohio. Her simple mission as owner of the Candy Break was to provide wholesome, handmade treats to everyone in town and to interesting customers from far-off places. The impact of her efforts was more far-reaching and enriching than you might first expect. Over the years, she has offered free ice cream cones to kids who could recite Bible verses, gave boxes of candy on Valentine's Day to local volunteers, and provided a gathering place of old fashioned hospitality. Her story involves, first of all, her faith and her family-both essential ingredients in her success. It also chronicles a lovely town in southwestern Ohio and an array of unforgettable friends who visited the store, some facing tragedy but most enjoying life in a memorable and very "sweet" way. If you're fond of candy, family, and other forms of simple happiness, you'll love this book about how one little candy store came to life and in turn enlivened a community.
