Children’s Book Review – So That’s What God is Like!
By Lisa M. Hendey
Sometimes teaching our children about God can feel like a daunting task. So That’s What God Is Like! (Kregel Publications, May 2004) tells the story of Temba, a curious young African boy, who spends the day trying to learn about God. Author Leanne Hardy’s life experience as a missionary rings through in this story. The story presented in this book is a heartwarming tale of one boy's quest to learn about God. His wise Granny shares with him the meaning of God's existence by using images that have relevance to his everyday life. The book's incredible illustrations make it a treasure that will be a great addition to your family's library. Our children's book reviewer gave this book 5 stars and said "Everyone should read this book because everyone should know what God is like."

The Story of One Soul...So Far...
O.K., I’ll admit it…he had me with title. Before I even cracked the cover of Matthew Lickona’s new book Swimming With Scapulars: True Confessions Of A Young Catholic (Loyola Press, April 2005, hardcover, 278 pages), I found myself intrigued. Gratefully, having now read and re-read the book in its entirety, I’ll say I was not disappointed. As a matter of fact, this book is among my favorites for the year – not because I agree 100% with everything Lickona writes in this memoir, but because of his stunningly gifted delivery and the honesty with which he shares his soul.
Living With and Loving Our Teens
One recent morning, as my thirteen year old son slumped sleepily into the kitchen for breakfast, I took a good look at him and realized that I now have a “teenager” living in my house. Up until this moment, I hadn’t really accepted the fact – although he’d reach the chronological age, he still seemed like my little boy. Suddenly now, in the middle of his thirteenth year, I’m back to reading parenting manuals and seeking helpful advice in manner that I haven’t done since my youngest was in the throes of the terrible twos.
