  • Wild Things

    Clay Carmichael

    eBook (Boyds Mills Press, Nov. 4, 2016)
    A headstrong girl. A stray cat. A wild boy. A man who plays with fire. Eleven-year-old Zoë trusts no one. Her father left before she was born. At the death of her irresponsible mother, Zoë goes to live with her uncle, former surgeon and famed metal sculptor Dr. Henry Royster. She's sure Henry will fail her as everyone else has. Reclusive since his wife's death, Henry takes Zoë to Sugar Hill, North Carolina, where he welds sculptures as stormy as his moods. Zoë and Henry have much in common: brains, fiery and creative natures, and badly broken hearts. Zoë confronts small-town prejudice with a quick temper. She warms to Henry's odd but devoted friends, meets a mysterious teenage boy living wild in the neighboring woods, and works to win the trust of a feral cat while struggling to trust in anyone herself. In this ALA Notable Children's Book and Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book of the Year, Zoë's questing spirit leads her to uncover the wild boy's identity, lay bare a local lie, and begin to understand the true power of Henry's art. Then one decisive night, she and the boy risk everything in a reckless act of heroism.

  • Things as They Are - Mission Work in Southern India

    Amy Carmichael

    eBook (, March 19, 2017)
    This edition of Amy Carmichael's evocative account working as a missionary in rural India includes the original and evocative photographs and imagery of India's people and environment. Written at the opening of the 20th century, this stunning book charts the journey made by Carmichael and her company into the depths of rural India. There they encountered the poor and dispossessed, whom they set about converting to Christianity. While reactions ranged from receptive to hostile, the journey itself was an illuminating one: the manner of the local traditions, the behaviour of the natives, and the atmosphere of Southern India all impressed deeply upon Carmichael. The book itself was endorsed by many Christian ministers of the era, who found the frank and open accounts Amy Carmichael committed to the pages illuminating. No attempt is made to hide or whitewash the hardship and difficulty the poor suffered, or of the widespread devotion to the Hindu faith which had existed there for thousands of years. During her travels, Carmichael encountered many tribal and other groupings which differed from one another. Sure to photograph the most interesting when permitted, it is thus that this book carries historical value - many of the groups Carmichael encountered today no longer exist, or are diminished in status. Things as They Are is thus an underappreciated and historic work, for its eye-opening and moving accounts of Christian missions and the poverty suffered in India.
