Books with author Lisa O Engelhardt

Growing up in today's fast-paced world can be a land mine for kids. How do they know right and wrong when so much that surrounds them makes so many things seem relative? This book is designed to help children to be thinking in the right direction in terms of right and wrong, as well as give parents and other caring adults a valuable tool to help them in their care for children. With the colorful, helpful Abbey Elves as guides, the book steers children through the turbulent waters of wrong to the peace that comes from doing the right thing.

Kids aren’t born knowing right from wrong. But, somehow, over the years, we hope to help them become caring, responsible, respectful adults. This practical how-to book for kids is an invaluable tool in guiding children on the journey of moral development. Through concrete language and interactive examples, it addresses such topics as honesty, peer pressure, and how to tell right from wrong. Even more, it shows kids how to go beyond doing right to doing good.

Everyone needs a best friend—someone who knows you and loves you just the way you are. Someone who hugs you when you’re sad and celebrates when you’re happy. Best friends like to spend time with each other. Best friends stay in touch and help each other out. This book introduces children to their very own Best Friend-God. Through childlike images and charming illustrations, it helps young believers to come to know God as an everyday, everywhere, anytime kind of Friend. A down-to-earth primer for children (and adults too!) on God.
