She lived in a circus truck for over 50 years... Some say Rhena was a celebrity. Others saw an eccentric lady who tended goats by day and roamed the streets of Smackover by night. Which was it? For children of all ages, this 32 page picture book, The Goat Woman of Smackover shows how one girl refused to stay crushed by her broken dreams.Originally published in 2001, Author-illustrator Ramona Wood sketched from her own family goats when creating the scenes for this book. Ramona spoke with Rhena's former neighbors, collecting a variety of tales about the woman who crossed their paths. Weaving together a single story from the sometimes-conflicting reports had its challenges. Nonetheless, all would agree that Rhena left her mark on the community. Happily, the Goat Woman's story lives on!

What Readers say about Nine Ways to Win: Fruit of the Spirit Activity Book"A fun way to instill values in children.""While activities to reinforce faith topics are difficult to find, this book solves that problem by giving equal time to each fruit. For novice or well-seasoned teachers, this book lends itself to engaging diverse ages and learning levels. As a director of education for a church for eight years, I see this as a tool and resource that can stand alone or be used alongside its parent book: Manners & Tips for Caring Kids, Based on the Fruit of the Spirit, by the same author.""I made my very own kindness bracelet today! It came out perfect according to instructions. There's a great variety of activities. Some require more work or materials and some just require a pencil...I really love the Goodness recipe-fun and a great object lesson.""Well-thought-out and well-paced, the workbook is easy to follow. Hand 'em this book and let 'em run with it!"

This is a festive and eye-catching book about the original Judeo-Christian celebrations.It gives answers about: 1.) How Jesus is linked to Ancient Israel and the gift of the feast days. 2.) The Christian feasts that are lost to society at large, yet have been kept by a stream of Gods people through the centuries. 3.) How clues to the future--the establishment of Gods large and beautiful kingdom--are woven into these celebrations!Reviews"Very kid-friendly and easy to understand. The calendar of the spring feast looks really helpful." "...an inspired work of art!! The use of the textures is so warm and inviting...it felt like you could snuggle up close with the book. Everything was SO thought out! (I LOVED the Holy Days as a bouquet of flowers.) Your book lists the Plan of Salvation so beautifully." "Even though it is a childrens book, there is a lot in there that I did not know!"
