Bøger af Steve SIMMs

A heart warming story about a family that discover a piece of magic in their own home. They save a fantastic creature from eternal sleep and tell the story of the Pyjama Pets. Written by husband & wife team, Jude & Steve Simms, it is a tongue in cheek interpretation of their life. No one said life would be easy, but it sure can be full of love, creativityand magic. They tested the story out on their 5 children over the last 5 years (yes that's how long its taken, and then some). They think the rhyming prose and bright illustrations are the perfect bedtime, or anytime read. It is a lead into the world of Hellygog, their Arts and Crafts store in Logie Steading, Moray, Scotland. The pair already teaches classes in felting, sculpture, drawing and painting and plan to introduce sessions in Pyjama Pet creation (and all that would go with becoming a Pyjama Farmer). The couple are supported by their children and the larger Hellygog family of local crafts people. Be prepared for more books from the Simms household.

"What you are about to read is both a history and the personal experience of Steve Simms from Tennessee. Steve grew up in the segregated South--but had no idea the "racial divide" was as great as it was, nor why it existed in the first place. He speaks from the heart, while not skirting the main issue of racism in America--its history and present despair - but he provides incredible hope for America's struggle with this most volatile issue. Seriously - you will not want to put this book down--it's just too dynamic. It's time to address these issue in a way of reconciliation and restoration of our fragmented society . . . this book has come during a most divisive time in American history . . . may it be a "balm in Gilead" to heal our wounds.Doug Krieger, Rtd. California Public Schools Administrator, Editor, Tribnet Publications: "Despite the many changes, our nation still struggles with racism and its legacy. Steve Simms walks us bravely through our dark history of slavery, while managing to do so with warmth and grace. He introduces us to unsung heroes, points out the faults of those we have long idolized, and ultimately paints a picture full of color and wonder and love. This is a book that should be read by everyone. It is a vital clanging of the bell, a wake-up call, and points us to-ward the power of love which can change generations to come. Simms writes with unsurpassed passion and grace"Eric Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of Fireproof and Facing the Giants"The racial divide in America is real and it is deep. Steve Simms begins his exploration of the problem with three questions. He then takes the reader on his personal journey into lives and circumstances that too few would even dare imagine going. He is intentional about finding answers-no matter the risks. But he cannot question without engaging experiences that would otherwise be unknown and thus unappreciated. This is a rare account of a man who literally takes action on his belief in the worth of others. Interested in discovering what you can do to address the problem? Then you must read Steve's story!"Commissioner Israel L. GaitherRetired USA National CommanderThe Salvation Army, USA
