Books with title Jesus All Alone

When you are alone, you can do all sorts of things -- pretend you are tiny (or enormous), hear things other people can't hear, and see things they can't see. Being alone is fine -- sometimes. Kevin Henke's first book makes it clear that he remembers his own childhood and respects that time in others. His remarkable paintings have a life and luminescense that are unforgettable.

Ten-year-old Ren Singerson has a magic problem. This is no ordinary pulling-a-coin-out-of-an-ear or a bunny-out-of-a-hat-magic, it’s much scarier and bigger than that: all of Ren’s fears are coming to life. Which is why he isn’t excited about a family trip to Italy. Even though he’s missing school and can eat all the gelato and pizza he ever wanted, it means coming face-to-face with the two fears that scare him most and there’s no one that can help––not his mom, dad or twin sister Evie. He’s all alone.

Oloo!-Oo-oo-oop!-ooooo! All alone, high on the slope of the Little Giant in the French Alps of Saucie, ten-year-old Marcel yodeled to keep himself company. Like other boys in his village, Marcel would have to look over the family's cows during the summer; and the flexible, age-old rule was, "Don't visit, keep to yourself, mind your own business, attend to your own cows and nothing else." If it were not for the Oloooo! of another boy yodeling in the distance, this might have been a quiet summer for Marcel. Instead, it was the beginning of an incredible adventure.
