Ames library does have the Karen Kingsbury books too, thats where I got them all when I read them. Also Chronicles of Narnia are great reads and when you read them as an adult you catch all the stuff that kids may not. Also The Giver by Lois Lowry is more juvenile fiction much likes Holes but a great read with an interesting message.Holliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14693468458647360915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351617616420170946.post-84979875055883556682009-07-21T11:23:53.298-05:002009-07-21T11:23:53.298-05:00Jane Eyre is amazing.

A great classic. <br /><br />A resource to help you find books to read is "Honey for a Woman's Heart" -- a similar resource for kids is "Honey for a Child's Heart."<br /><br />Happy reading!ModFarmhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04672521664718585223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351617616420170946.post-2127725296261010212009-07-21T08:51:24.502-05:002009-07-21T08:51:24.502-05:00Here are some of my favorites:

Redeeming ...These are some Christian fiction books.<br />Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. Great book.<br />Also anything by Karen Kingsbury. But read these series in this order: Redemption (5 books), First Born (5 books), Sunrise (4 books). And pretty sure they might make you tear up a bit. If the Ames library doesn't have them, I know the Huxley library does. :) <br />Happy Reading!Farmgirl Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02940060352607852950noreply@blogger.com
