Love You S’more is a children’s book about two raccoons competing to see who loves the other more. It’s centered around using s’more as a catchy phrase. It described how a marshmallow is soft like our feelings and how our hearts melt when we’re together. Our love is like graham crackers and how they hug together when you make a s’more and this is like a tight hug. They are in a contest to see who will win in their love.
I would recommend this awesome book to anyone who enjoys reading a catchy story. This one is good for ages 2-7. This one is a really cute one with illustrations and comparison between love and s’mores. I loved the camping scenes and the raccoons describing how much they love each other. This book has a great message about love and how we are like a s’more. It makes it a very friendly children’s book that kids will want to reread again and again.

All the Places We Call Home is a book about all the places that she has lived- America, Jamaica, and Zimbabwe. A big part of the book is a little girl tracing the globe with her finger dreaming of one day visiting. She shared personal stories and memories about other lands and the experiences there. These can help deepen our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
I would recommend this amazing book to anyone who is seeking a book that looks at our history and has a message about dreaming about all the places we called home. I liked how the book looked at different cultures. They also looked at how memories are made and become a part of us through the different generations. It was great seeing how this book shared stories from the grandmother and memories that will be passed down to generations.

Uniquely is a brand-new children’s book about how God has made us. She begins by sharing the verse Psalm 139:14 and this one discussed how we are fearfully and wonderfully made and how we will praise God and His works. The book reminded us how we are one of a kind and a masterpiece made by our loving Creator. God loves us when we make mistakes and mess up. God has given us talents and gifts to use and to help others.
I would recommend this awesome book to all children. This book has a wonderful message that everyone needs to hear and to also live out like we believe it. I love how it teaches our children how we need to love ourselves not in a selfish way but as we are God’s chosen child. I loved how she taught children how we all have gifts and we don’t need to wish we had someone else’s gift. I also liked how it discussed what to do with others think we’re silly, weird, and they don’t want to accept us. We can choose to smile and be kind and find our true friends. I loved how colorful the pictures were and how diverse all the characters enclosed and I feel like all children will be able to relate to the message of being ourselves.

In Overcoming When You Feel Overwhelmed, Jentezen Franklin explored different steps we can use when we feel like giving up and how we can be an overcomer. He divided the book up into three sections. The first one discussed how we are destined to overcome and how we are a part of biblical prophecy. The second section was about 5 steps for being an overcomer. Some of these included, “look within, look to Him, look out, and much more. The third part is about the four characteristics: fear, depressing, discouragement, and lust of the end time spirit that is present. He ends it with discussing how new life can began and we can gain freedom.
One of my favorite chapters went over the topic of depression. He looked at the life of David and how he was anointed king by Samuel. King Saul tried to kill him. He explained how he was anointed and weak at the same time. He looked at how the devil doesn’t want us believing that we are in fact anointed. I also liked how he looked at Dr. Daniel Amen and how he came up with the acronym ANT (Automatic Negative Thoughts). He compared our thinking to like ants and how our negative thoughts infest our brains and how they destroy our thought life. He shared a personal story about how he had to face his board members and how he thought he was going to get fired. They didn’t fire him but instead wanted to bless him with a new van for his family. He was afraid of the worst and it turned out to be something else entirely. He stated how he learned how he needed to focus on the positive and not let ANTS infest our minds with negative thoughts. He also shared a secret about a narrow mind and how they are always accompanied with a big mouth. I thought this was a very powerful statement.
I would recommend this life changing book to anyone who is ready to become an overcomer and they are feeling overwhelmed. I immensely liked how he looked at prophecy and how instead we need to be more concerned with who we are when He returns. One of my favorite sections was the one on the four characteristics of the evil spirit, Jezebel. I appreciated how he discussed each of the four ways the devil is trying to control us and to keep us overwhelmed in our problems. This book will assist readers in overcoming whatever challenges that they are facing.

My Review:
I was excited to rewatch this film for a second time. I immensely loved the message of the film and how determination and believing in yourself can help you to achieve the impossible. I also liked how they added autism as a I loved Tyson and Aklilu relationship and how he was like a big brother to him. He helped train him to run a marathon. I also liked watching the relationship between father and son change over time. They struggled greatly connecting with each other and Tyson just wanted desperately to fit into his world. He wanted to make his father proud like his football team does. He wanted to become a champion. I loved the reminder of the film and how we need to finish our race.

In The Path to Peace, Ann Swindell has written a brand new 40-day devotional. She divided the book into eight different key Biblical characters and how they discovered their peace. These included Sarah, Moses, Ruth, Paul, the Disciples, and much more. As we are all aware, they didn’t live all carefree lives. They like us had things to face and deal with. She explained how each had faith and they learned the importance of peace. She looked at how having a soul at rest in God brings us true peace. She shared throughout the book how she gained peace and had a changed heart. In the book, she opened about her own story. Her and her husband had been married for about 13 years at the time. Her husband lost his job and this caused financial struggle worries. She explained how she had a lack of security about the future. She remembered how she went off on her husband about how this wasn’t what she signed up for. She didn’t want a life filled with loss and pain. She didn’t want three miscarriages and for her son to have major health issues. They moved four times within 4 and a half years. They lost their friends and were abandoned. She touched on how her husband went into full time ministry and challenges this brought. Readers will be able to see how she was able to still have peace.
I would recommend this awesome devotional to anyone is ready to rediscover peace and they are tired of living in fear and anxiety. I immensely loved how she shared different Biblical characters and their life stories. I liked how she made the story appear like you were hearing about it for the first time. She made it seems fresh and new. I loved how she mixed in her own personal life stories in the book and how she handled the changes that happened in her family. It was awesome to witness how she remained hopeful and at peace.
