It is said that as many as 150 species become extinct every day—this book inspires children to help take a stand in reducing that number Taking the reader on a trip around the world to meet 10 endangered animals whose futures hang in the balance, this engaging and highly illustrative book travels from the snow leopard in the Himalayas to the black-footed ferrets in the prairies of Wyoming and South Dakato to show a wide array of animals on the countdown to extinction—some of which are already extinct in the wild. Using a combination of counting verses and straight facts, it highlights the struggles the animals face for survival in hopes to educate children on their plight and inspire them to help. Each animal is accompanied by a gentle verse in the style of the traditional song "Over in the Meadow" that describes the habits of these creatures, while information boxes point out the bleak facts of their near extinction.

Nana's book of love letters, which was written for Jesus's precious children, consists of thirteen letters. The thirteenth letter is a birthday letter appropriate for any month. These carefully thought-out letters were prayed over and were changed many times with the inspiration of God's input and love for his little ones. They do not have to start in January as a continuation or connection between each month. They are written as separate entities, with each letter introducing the month about which I am writing. This would include the time of year, the seasons, and many of the holidays. There are exaggerated adjectives and exclamations to bring out refreshing fun, laughter, and surprise to the child in the sentences. The younger years of my past are woven together with present-life situations to capture and stimulate the child's imagination. New and creative ways are introduced in playing, crafts, and jokes they can share with their friends. The intent, above all, is to intertwine the love of Jesus throughout the letters. This is circled around love that is expressed to them and love that can come from them toward others. The captivatingly tailored letters are inspired by God to help instill confidence and good moral conduct and to mold a godly character in the children.
