The Columbine tragedy in April 1999 pierced the heart of our country. In December 1999, we learned that the teenage killers specifically targeted Rachel Scott and mocked her Christian faith on their chilling, homemade videotapes. Rachel Scott died for her faith. Now her parents talk about Rachel's life and how they have found meaning in their daughter's martyrdom in the aftermath of the school shooting. Rachel's Tears comes from a heartfelt need to celebrate this young girl's life, to work through the grief and the questions of a nation, and to comfort those who have been touched by violence in our schools today. Using excerpts and drawings from Rachel's own journals, her parents offer a spiritual perspective on the Columbine tragedy and provide a vision of hope for preventing youth violence across the nation.

Part of the "My World" series, an information book series which features colour photographs and a clear and simple text on each page, this book looks at Easter in Greece. The series is graded for language level and readability in line with the Red, Green and Blue levels of the "New Way" series and may be viewed as the non-fiction strand of that scheme. However, it can easily be used quite independently of "New Way". There are two books on each subject area so that concepts and vocabulary can be easily reinforced, but all the books (at any level) can be read in any order.
