The Circle Maker Student Edition
By Mark Batterson and Parker Batterson
Read by Van Tracy
Dream Big. Pray Hard. Think Long.
Pray Circles Around Your Greatest Dreams and Biggest Fears.
"Batterson shares his story and that of his ministry, and while the stories are not always relevant to his audience (which he admits), his sincerity comes through. And unlike some other books of this ilk, this title does not so much make fanciful promises as it encourages readers to really consider their lives and what they need rather than what they want, and it shows them paths to peace and happiness. There are workbook-like activities at the end of each chapter, and because of the relatability of the message, kids may be moved to try them." - Booklist

The Captive Maiden
Read by Jude Mason
This medieval Christian re-telling of Cinderella is the 4th book in the Fairy Tale Romance series.
"Without magic dust or musical interludes, Dickerson delivers a wonderful spin on Cinderella that is full of engaging, thoughtful characters amid lively medieval pageantry...Detailed descriptions create a strong sense of a 1400s' medieval town, from the vibrant marketplace to the cold castles, to knights battling in front of a gallery of beautiful maidens in their finery. The setting emphasizes the limited options available to Gisela as a young maiden with no money or family. The inspirational and reflective tone shows her to be kind and forgiving despite her hardships, and Valten, brave and chivalrous, no longer seeks fame and glory, but rather welcomes the 'idea of God-given purpose.' This novel has lots of appeal for fans of fairy tales and of chivalry and knights." - School Library Journal
